"The Fat Duck" introductory sentence restored
[edit]Hi, on "The Fat Duck" page I noticed that you removed the text: "In 2009 the restaurant suffered from the largest ever recorded norovirus outbreak with over 400 diners falling unwell." on the grounds that the information is repeated in the "Food, scare and closure" sub-heading.
I wanted to let you know that I've undone that edit. Wikipedia articles cover topics at several levels of detail: the lead contains a quick summary of the topic's most important points, and each major subtopic is detailed in its own section of the article. The sentence about the norovirus in the introduction acts as a quick summary of the more detailed information further down. If you look at most Wikipedia articles you will notice the same pattern - the introduction summarizes the content. I can see how it might look like repetition, but it's actually a summary at a different level of abstraction.

Concern
[edit]The way you are editing the Heston Blumenthal related articles is often far from neutral and often in my opinion corporate promotion. All by itself, it gives me the impression that you are in some way closely to Heston Blumenthal and is business affairs. It is clear that you have a Conflict of Interest, making it difficult for you to maintain the neutral tone and style the encyclopaedia needs. Instead, you often use a marketing/promotional tone and style. Paid editing, even as part of your daily work, is frowned upon. It can be reason for blocks. The Banner talk 16:19, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
