Check your edits[edit]

Hi, please check your edits using the preview button to make sure you are not inadvertently removing material from the page, as you just did twice to Christopher Busby. Also, please make use of the edit summary to describe your edits. Thanks, Verbal chat 12:38, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is this where you want me to discuss your revert? Or somewhere else. It would be good to know why you have changed what I wrote about Christopher Busby. All of the things were correct and were referenced/ verifiable. I dont understand 'puff piece'. You seem rather exercised about this. Can you explain Profwoland (talk) 14:31, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I answered your comment on my talk page (it's at the bottom - new items should be placed at the bottom). The article should be discussed on its talk page, general discussions can happen here or on my page as your prefer. I like to keep discussions in as few places as possible. The tone of your changes is not neutral and therefore falls afoul of NPOV and BLP. Also, the large publication list and discussion of his theories is not justified. I have reverted your changes, it is now up to you or others to discuss them and gain consensus for any changes, per WP:BRD. Thanks, Verbal chat 15:15, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I have replied to you here, on my talk page, and on several threads on the article talkpage. From now on shall we keep to the article talk page for discussing the article, and here for general comments or comments specifically directed to me?
