Can you call me at 629-6417? I'm doing a news story on this page.

Thanks

Pat Binns

I know nothing about Pat Binns or the political situation surrounding the PEI election. The article came to my attention while I was patrolling recent edits, and that's when I applied the neutrality/citation tags to the top of the page. The editor to whom you're referring appears to be citing news articles and government reports in support of his edits, while your edits are bald assertions which you claim to be neutral. You can't delete referenced material and replace it with unreferenced material. If the material you're including is valid, you should be able to find third-party sources to back it up. Feel free to add it to the article, with references, but please do not attempt to censor other editors who disagree with you. The same conditions will apply to other editors who may disagree with your edits. If it's referenced by a reliable third-party source and it's relevant to the article, there needs to be a very compelling reason to remove it. Dppowell 12:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I went through his edits again and removed a sentence which only served to profile the advocacy group you mentioned. I also removed the word "merely" in the following sentence. The rest of his edits appear to point to government reports and news articles, the only exception being a blog entry which has copied/pasted the text of the referenced news article.
