The first attempt at this article was deleted; this version has been completely rewritten to focus on factual history with references added, but it's still flagged as too advertise-y. I'm attempting to create an article on the 110 year history of McRoskey in San Francisco and would appreciate any input or editing to help make this a good neutral article.

Hangon[edit]

Attempts being made to resolve breach of copyvio and to reduce advert speak. NtheP (talk) 17:52, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We have permission to use that copy from Robin McRoskey but can rewrite if that helps. Give us half an hour? Placemakinggroup (talk) 17:53, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am rewriting the final paragraph; thanks to Nthep for editorial help. Placemakinggroup (talk) 18:00, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite of final paragraph has been posted; working on other content. Robin McRoskey Azevedo will send a confirmation of her permission to use content from the McRoskey History page to cover the bases. Placemakinggroup (talk) 18:25, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Holding back on edits for a moment as I see Nthep has been also working on it (thanks!). I'd love to add the references tag back at the bottom of the page when this is cleaned up. Placemakinggroup (talk) 18:33, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The copyvio issues have been resolved with rewrites, I think. Will continue to work on editorial tone to support the historical factual content. Placemakinggroup (talk) 19:00, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
