[edit]
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to The Network of Buddhist Organisations. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. your edits have clearly been intended to promote a particular view, and to minimise presentation of other pints of view.

My apologies for breaching guidelines, I am new to editing wikipedia and unfamiliar with the rules. I was simply responding to what I saw as a very negative portrayal of the NBO. The critical editor of the NBO entry is using this entry to publicise his own long campaign against three Buddhist organisations. Can you explain why you reverted the careful changes I made to the NBO entry to a much more critical version, even though I referenced these?
I have spent a few days reading about wiki and the background to the NBO and the critical editor of most of the NBO wiki entry. I am now much better informed.
If you do a google search on the NBO you will find that the only critical comments are from one (anonymous) source (our troublesome editor) and that no other credible acadamic or authority has referenced his material.
The current version of the NBO article is not neutral, although improved since I last looked, it says almost nothing about what the NBO is and what it has been doing in the 17 years since it started.
