Your edits to Flower Mound, Texas[edit]

I'm sorry that I've had to revert or modify the edits you've made to Flower Mound, Texas. However, we're trying to be as accurate and neutral as possible in our articles, and to say that a city of nearly 70,000 residents is made up primarily of shopping centers is not acceptable due to its obvious inaccuracy. Please remember that Wikipedia is not a vehicle for polemical exaggeration. The Flower Mound, Texas article already discusses concerns about growth in the city in an even-handed manner.

Also, the comment that there are 18 grocery stores in Flower Mound seems unnecessary, and the comment is definitely unsourced. Assuming the number is correct, that would mean a grocery store for every 4,000 residents, which is hardly a remarkable or noteworthy statistic. I modified your remark about grocery stores and included it as part of the general comment on critical views of Flower Mound's development.

I would encourage you to edit other articles, and to always edit in a neutral, carefully factual manner. Again, I wish I hadn't needed to revert or modify the edits you've made so far. But I hope you understand that we're attempting to keep Wikipedia as balanced and factual as possible. Thanks. Casey Abell 14:09, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
