This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you delete or blank page contents or templates from Wikipedia, you will be blocked from editing. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:44, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have never deleted or blank page contents - please advice upon what basis you make this unfounded allegation.

As a curator I have thoroughly checked the accuracy and relevancy of this article and nothing in it suggests any improprietary or misleading information. I live and work in a builing that is over 170 years old and located in Drake Circus. It is a listed building and to imply that it is linked to the likes of "spud-u-like" is the subject of a great deal of ridicule to the many thousands who live, work and study in this area.

You're on your last warning now and both articles have now been semi-protected. While I understand your concerns, you can't just go hacking away at an encyclopedia article because you don't like the subject. If you feel the article is biased, best thing is to weigh in on the talk page and state your case, preferably giving cites/evidence/etc for local unrest about the building. That way, everyone is happy. The other editors working here are just trying to remain neutral and balanced and will be happy to accommodate your information provided it is verifiable and encyclopedic - Alison 00:54, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alison you will see if you check the history page of the article that many others have cited reliable sources to corrorbate their statements however all these references are continually deleted/vandalised. In particular Alison if you look at the shaded grey area on this map university campus and then look at the address on this page university address hopefully you might appreciate that the shopping mall is not in the Drake Circus area. H.H.Land Registry and H.M. Valuation office records will prove beyond all reasonable doubt that the shopping mall fronts Bretonside - not Drake Circus. If you want proof of the local resentment i suggest you come here and ask the retailers how they feel about having their historical identity misappropiated. I have now passed our concerns to the relevant channels of Wickipedia including your unfounded and spurious allegation that i was engaged in 'hacking' when all i did was to amend the commercial propoganda with the truth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Curatorpccgovuk (talkcontribs)
Unfortunately, as I'm in California, I can't go there to see for myself. Nor can any of our readers, which is why we need reliable third-party sources for what you say here. It's not that the other editors disbelieve you, it's that you need to back up what you're saying. Looking back through the article history, I'm not seeing any references and cites which have been removed by others. On the other hand, I see you are discussing this on the talk page now, so this is a definite step forwards - Alison 01:30, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the term I used was "hacking about". As I've not actually edited the articles in question whatsoever other than respond to a protection request on WP:RPP from another editor, there's not really much I have done here to influence the article. However, if you wish to complain about my behaviour as an administrator, however, you can post a message to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents detailing your issues. Thanks - Alison 01:33, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alison the simplest and easiest way at this time of proving the article is to follow this link http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/addressfinder;jsessionid=2ESNNVYUXYPN4FB2IGFUQEQUHRAYUQ2K?catId=400145&pageId=pcaf_a_ma_results&_requestid=213278&gear=postcode if it does not show the address then click on the tab 'find address' and enter the postcode of a random business in the area (some of them are referred to in the article) Unless you are suggesting that the Royal Mail's database is wrong and that the statement "drake circus is a shopping mall" is right then surely this is all the proof you require. A correct statement should read "a shopping mall called drake circus" - named after its neighbouring area. Its like stating 'seattle is a tower' its nonsensical and wholly inaccurate. In any event what purpose other than to spam and promote the shops such as spud-u-like is served by including it in an encylopedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Curatorpccgovuk (talkcontribs)

Ok, so what you need to do now is bring this conversation to the relevant talk page and have other editors weigh in there. I'm just an administrator who was called in to deal with your disruption. I've nothing invested in this whatsoever. I just want you to stop disrupting otherwise I'll be forced to block you from editing and I don't want to do that. So, best off bringing your issues to the talk page and work with the others on making change that works for everyone. Let me know if you need any help on that - Alison 04:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
