Free Theatre Christchurch
I note that all of your edits have been to this article. I also note that one of the collaborators listed on the FTC website has the initials "GP". In case this indicates that you are connected to this organization, I want to point your attention to our policy on editng with a conflict of interest. As an encyclopedia written by amateurs and volunteers, we need to guard against any bias which might be introduced by editors who have an ingrained point of view about the subjects they write about.

Apologies, I am not ignoring your comment. I have reviewed the 'conflict of interest' document and while i have had an association with the Free Theatre I am not sure that I qualify in terms of an ingrained pov. But should this be considered the case, there are others that are keen to add to this important history in terms of New Zealand theatre - particularly in terms of its unique history. Is the article considered to biased?

 * I don't think it's particularly biased at this time, but we'd like to keep it that way. Be careful that everything is presented as neutrally as possible, provide citations for anything that could be the least bit contentious, and don't go into minute detail about ordinary events.  You might want to add a comment on the talk page, something to the effect that you have a connection to the theater but that you are taking care to edit neutrally.  That way, you're being upfront about it, in case someone is wondering about your contributions.  I'll keep the article on my watchlist and let you know if I think things are slipping.
