Hello, I'm Tornado chaser. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Mountain View, Georgia, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

References added to Mountain View page
The references for the Mountain View page have been added. As these additions are facts about the area, the local government will be the ones that will have the knowledge to add these parts. Additionally, the reference to noise abatement was referenced using the Atlanta Airport's official page.


 * Since you say you work for the town, you should read WP:COI, and WP:NPOV, your last edit seemed promotional in tone and the source was promotional as well. Note that you must disclose if you are being paid to edit or are editing on behalf of you employer. Tornado chaser (talk) 01:13, 2 October 2017 (UTC)


 * It is not promotional when you are talking about the future economic growth of the area. The governmental entity is responsible for determining future economic use of the are and you should not be allowed to re-edit a the entry because it does not meet "your" standards.  The infrastructure is a statement of facts.  The tax incentives were passed by the Georgia legislature are statements of fact.  We are talking about an area within Clayton County.  I have provided references and will make an additional edit that states the the edit is made on behalf of the governmental entity.  If you continue to remove the edit, I will request that the entire Mountain View Georgia page be removed from Wikipedia completely.


 * Stuff like "there is great potential for the Mountain View area to capitalize on opportunities directly around the airport" and "the Mountain View area has an opportunity to reinvent itself" is promotional tone, articles must be written with no bias, all your edits were written like an ad for doing business in the town. Also, per WP:CRYSTAL, predictions about the future are to be avoided (it is ok to say "this project is scheduled for this date" but not "the economy will improve in the future")


 * You said "The governmental entity is responsible for determining future economic use of the are and you should not be allowed to re-edit a the entry because it does not meet "your" standards." This is not how wikipedia works, everyone is always changing stuff that was put in by other people, and I am not making arbitrary standards, I am following wikipedia policy to the best of my knowlage. You also say "If you continue to remove the edit, I will request that the entire Mountain View Georgia page be removed from Wikipedia completely." an article can only be deleted if it meets the |deletion criteria for deletion.

Please do not assume ownership of articles. If you aren't willing to allow your contributions to be edited extensively or be redistributed by others, please do not submit them. Thank you.-- VViking Talk Edits 13:21, 2 October 2017 (UTC)


 * There is no assumption of ownership of the article (I read the link) however we have added an edit to the article like any other person on Wikipedia that someone without any authority continues to undo. If no one owns it, we certainly have the right to add new content to an article.  Nothing was removed, we only added additional information about the area.  References have been sited.  Under what authority does anyone have to go in and edit the article?


 * Under the terms and conditions of Wikipedia. The encyclopedia anyone can edit. However you are not following those same terms and conditions, who is We? You have been reverted by at least two different editors now which makes it appear you are involved in Edit Warring. As for owning the article the reason I gave you that warning was this statement from you "If you continue to remove the edit, I will request that the entire Mountain View Georgia page be removed from Wikipedia completely." That sounds like you are trying to own the article to me. I suggest that you declare your exact Conflict of Interest, and stop trying to edit war.  VViking Talk Edits 13:50, 2 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Where are the terms and conditions that prohibit a person from adding content to a page. I was mistaken about asking the page to be taken down but from my understanding of how wikipedia works, anyone can edit and/or add content.  I am simply adding content to bring it up the page up to date only to have several volunteer editors, who know nothing of the area, remove it.  What is the point of having an online, open resource if it is constantly removed by non-subject matter experts?  Where is the authority in wikipedia established to only allow content that some editor approves?


 * We are all volunteers (you imply that you are not, could you clarify this?) no one has authority we just work together to edit this includes adding as well as deleting stuff, there are policies we must follow, and admins can block editors who violate the policies, but the admins are also volunteers, you are right that I know nothing of the area, but one dosen't need to be an expert in the subject to tell when it is written like an ad.
