Proper process
If you have issues with the content of an article the way to deal with it is to discuss them on the article's talk page - Talk:Port Macquarie-Hastings Council in this instance - and reach a consensus. The unilateral removal of sourced material is not appropriate and will not be tolerated. nancy (talk) 11:03, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Should also be noted that Wikipedia provides (or aims to provide) reliably sourced information from neutral, peer reviewed sources. We have to wait until December for the NSW political chronicle for the current period to be published, but the media coverage (all through major agencies which have both legal and editing processes in place) was reasonably solid and the articles actually do cite statements by the council's members and website to give balance to the content. In a case involving the sacking of the council for alleged incompetence and failings in its duties, the council's own website is probably not the first place one would turn to get a reliable account of what happened. Like Nancy said, the best place to outline one's concerns is the talk page of the article. Orderinchaos 11:19, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
