Just curious on how the information was not constructive. I simply put in the correct information about the company and the services it provides to the world.
- The edit you made was fine (I imagine ChannelR reverted you accidentally). I protected the page mainly due to Correctedit's edits, which read like an advertisement. · AndonicO Engage. 17:10, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
- Any chance for protection removal? User:A1NTME
- I didn't revert by mistake, I reverted because A1NTME turned the article into excatly the same advertisement that Correctedit used to do. Channel ® 21:30, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
- Since I am pretty new at this, might either of you be able to provide some feedback on how we can edit the page correctly and make it acceptable? Any tips/hints will be great.
One thing I would like your opinions on...if the page is for H Kramer & Company, why is it focused on another organizations work? The article is centered around the work of PERRO, www.pilsenperro.org, and not the company itself. I do believe the information has a place on the page but it should not be the main content. Just curious on how some of this works and how to correctly get the information about the company in instead of 2-3 year old information that is no longer true. That is the thing that kills me the most about some organizations, they slam a company and make them look bad but when the company rectifies the issues, that organization never goes back to state that thing have been fixed, just keep up stale content/figures/etc that make the company appear bad. They did update their own page but not all pages that revolve around the issue.User:A1NTME
- Well, if you'd like to improve the article, there are a few things you need to be aware of first: Correctedit's version was "spammy," it read like an advertisement (I assume that account also belongs to you—apologies if this is incorrect); to prevent this, the article must be written neutrally (here's our policy on this), and be verifiable (also policy) (see also our guidelines for sources). I'll unlock the article so you can edit. · AndonicO Engage. 12:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the help and the other account is not mine, not sure who's account that is.
Welcome.
