Nocton Dairies
Hello, and welcome. I see that you have been editing the Nocton Dairies article, and would like to offer a few words of advice that you might heed if you don't want to see everything you write deleted....

Wikipedia is meant to be neutral, and your edit summaries reveal that you feel the article is biased and wish to redress this, which is fair enough. However, if you read the article closely, you'll notice that it only reported what other people had said and done with respect to Nocton Dairies. This was mainly anti, but that is largely because they have been much more vociferous than the pros, and have generated much more newspaper coverage and so forth. So, to fix that, you need to add some pro articles and so on. Some of the links that you have added do do that, and they are fine, but some of them do not. They address things like anaerobic digestion, and are not actually about Nocton dairies. I'm going to remove those, because in adding them what you are doing is trying to use Wikipedia to strengthen the arguments for the dairy, rather than merely reporting what's been said and done elsewhere.

Also, don't write things like "Recently, such and such" because they become outdated.

I hope this is useful. I am not trying to be either pro or anti, but only helpful. This article has already aroused some controversy (look here), and if it is perceived to be supporting one side or the other will do so again. Feel free to reply here if you have any questions, and I'll try and answer them. Chris (talk) 20:58, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
