Reverted edit
I have reverted your edit to Exploits Valley Salmon Festival. Your opinion that the prior version showed the festival "in a negative light" (according to your edit summary) is not relevant. The prior version was properly sourced to reliable sources, whereas your version lacked any sources at all. It is unfortunate that the festival has received a fair amount of negative coverage over its struggling finances, but if that is the coverage that is available, that is the coverage we must use. If you can provide sources to balance the article (not remove the negative, cited information, but balance it with positive, cited information) then please do so, but do not remove cited information simply because you don't care for the message it portrays.

Username
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "TownGFW", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Trammel Museum of Art". However, you are invited to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you personally, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", and "WidgetFan87".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people, and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, or website, regardless of your username. Moreover, I recommend that you read our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please create a new account or request a username change that complies with our username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.
 * Based on your edits to Exploits Valley Salmon Festival (which occurs in the Town of Grand Falls-Windsor) I have to presume that your username represents the Town of Grand Falls-Windsor, in violation of Wikipedia username policies. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:36, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
