Request Information

 * Where is the issue taking place?
 * I edited in a section for the entry on Eurogamer, a British-based video games website. The section detailed a review by Eurogamer of Sensible Soccer 2006, an update of the soccer franchise.  I quoted criticism of the review by British games journalist Stuart Campbell, who detailed the flaws and glitches that marred the game, and who noted that Eurogamer had neglected to mention any of these issues.  However, this edit has been removed twice, and attempts to engage the user who deleted my edits have met with no response.


 * Who's involved?
 * User_talk:195.10.45.233


 * What's going on?
 * The edit I made to the Eurogamer entry was removed three days later. I edited the Eurogamer discussion page to ask why the piece had been deleted, argued that it should remain, and edited it back in.  A few days later it was removed again by the same user.  There was no response on the discussion page to my points, so I went to the talk page for the user in question in order to resolve any issues.  So far, there has been no response to this either.


 * ''What would you like to change about that?
 * I would like to know why my edit was removed, even though it raised legitimate questions about issues of bias or conflicts of interests at Eurogamer, and is in keeping with other sections on the Eurogamer entry about controversial review scores. In my opinion, the edit should remain and I hope to put it back in, but I have had no response from the user who removed the edits as to his/her reasoning for its removal and so do not know what the correct next steps are.


 * Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?
 * Whatever suits the Mediation Cabal is fine with me, please feel free to edit my user talk page.
