Removed Content

There seems to be a large amount of content removed from this article just after I added his most recent statistics. The comment was that it was PR fluff. I looked at the content again and it matches the format used for other race car drivers. [1] & [2]. I did not go through all of the sources, but the ones that I did support the content. I have reverted it back to how it was and would invite discussion here if someone feels that it should be removed. I did leave some of the formatting as some looked better than the original. I took the time to combine some of the paragraphs (which I would say have a little PR in them, but not as much as was removed). The Racing School looks like fluff so I agree with leaving it out (along with the "adventure" tour). I also removed some minor information that could be considered too promotional or "fluff." --IndyRaceFan2012 (talk) 17:35, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Neither of those two articles are very well written and suffer too much from recentism. The sources that supported the content remained in the article, but several of them did not and were removed for a reason. Further, just because something can be backed by a source does not mean it is notable enough to merit mention in the article. This is not a collection of every single iota of facts associated with Dion von Moltke. Finally, there were so many spelling and grammatical errors and clear copying of source content that the article you have reverted back to has obviously not been proofread. Thus, your edits have been reverted.

Your only real changes have been to remove the driving instructor program, return the redundant achievements section, and a See Also section that fails WP:SEEALSO policy.

As you have only had five edits to Wikipedia, all of which have been to this article, I suggest you become aware of such policies as WP:UNDUE, WP:COI, WP:BLP, and some other associated policies linked from those pages. The³5₉ (Talk) 19:03, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
