Owners

There is a dispute over content that keeps getting added and removed from the 'owners' section, regarding an $800 fine for threatening or abusive behavior. One issue is that the user doing most of the deletion is user:Campbellkate, who may have a conflict of interest (the name of the person with the $800 fine is Niall Campbell, their wife's first name is Catriona, according to their Wikipedia Page). I originally thought the deletions were vandalism, but it appears to be an issue of potential conflict of interest. Additionally, many of the edit summaries appear to be intentionally misleading (e.g., removing the sentences referring to the fine, but stating that they were just fixing a typo).

More immediately important however is the question of whether or not this information is actually relevant to this page? My opinion is that the information does not belong here, regardless of whether it is factual and properly cited, simply based on it's tangential-at-best relation to the castle. I would like to see the information regarding the fine moved to the Niall Campbell page directly, if it is relevant there, but removed from this page. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Would page protection help? - CorbieV ^☊ ☼ 19:37, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, looking over this in more detail, I see/recall now I'm one of the people who warned Campbellkate (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) for removing sources. If that user does it again, they're getting blocked. But we now have IPs doing similar edits, so I think semi-protecting the page is probably best. I'll look at the logs and protect it for a period of time to give established users some time to sort this, source it, and fix the POV issues. - CorbieV ^☊ ☼ 19:54, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for one week. If disruption resumes at that time, ping an admin to block disruptive editors and/or extend protection. I also reverted back to what looks to be the last stable version by an established editor. If this is The Wrong Version, feel free to rectify. - CorbieV ^☊ ☼ 20:03, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Sirs I wish to write to draw your attention to a disputed insert under the “owners” section on Rowallan Castle. There is a vendetta being waged against the owner where although the facts are not denied, they are still being considered by the Criminal Cases Review Committee. This is also a family business and would question if this information is relevant to the history of the castle. The indexed references are also incorrect and maybe, if to be included at all, it should be in the micro history section?
