Images

I added an image for the London production of Star Trek and restored the use of the BAA logo. As there is no article on BAA and BAA is the central aspect of Gore's importance, the use of this image in connection with this article is warranted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Benfeing (talk • contribs) 06:39, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Wikipedia:FU#Images and provide a fair-use rationale for the image based on copyright policy. --Kinu ^t/_c 16:13, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More Background Information

Perhaps someone familiar with English producing canfill in more details on Gore's UK theater background. The details in the US newspaper articles is slight. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Benfeing (talk • contribs) 19:37, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest

The user User:Benfeing created this page and edited it extensively, then a whole bunch of anonymous IP edits seem to take over. Look at the comment when the page was created: "Created page with '== References == [Live nation Finds a Buyer for its Theater Business, NY Times January 25, 2008 C:\Documents and Settings\Thomas B. McGrath\Local Settings\Temporary...')". It would seem to indicate that someone named "Thomas B. McGrath" created this page initially from a user account on a Windows machine. Suspiciously, there is a Tom McGrath (media executive) article about a co-owner of the same company as this subject. Far worse -- this same user also has edits on that page, as well. I think both these articles should be deleted, and the user blocked -- the IPs behind a lot of the anonymous edits on the multitude of anonymous edits on this page (and the other) should probably be blocked, as well, as I suspect it's probably people in the same company. -- Nusumareta (talk) 03:56, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
