User talk:J. L. W. in MA

Hi JLW,

As much as it pains me to say this, wikipedia has strict policies governing sourcing in articles and external links, and many of your recent edits to Aspen Dental include material which is not allowed under them. Critical material is fine in the article, but it must be appropriately sourced, and public complaint type web sites are not appropriate external links. However, newspaper articles or the similar detailing issues with AD would be. Please help us keep an encyclopedic article about such a contentious subject. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks, a13ean (talk) 19:53, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi A13ean:

Thank you for your opinions regarding Aspen Dentals page. It's unfortunate that Wiki doesn't allow for full disclosure to the public. Removing my edits gives a false impression of the company to the public. Example: "Aspen Dental has programs in place to provide low- or no-cost dental care to financially burdened patients: reduced fees for dental services"

This is patently false. Letting this stand without my edit is a misrepresentation of this company, and deceives the public.

This is not the way to increase Wiki's credibility.


 * There's no source for that statement, and as such it is easily remedied. a13ean (talk) 15:41, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
