Fair enough. It's just frustrating when you feel you have a valid addition to an article but, because it is not necessarily favourable for the organisation or person in question, teams of other editors swoop in and take it down. I accept that perhaps my additions may sometimes not be perfectly balanced, but I expect other editors to add balance, not remove the content altogether.Templetongore 09:10, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

HSBC - Controversies section

Hi!

In this edit you suggested that the "Controversies" section was removed without explanation ("Replacing controversy section, again, as it was removed without explanation"). That's not entirely correct: the IP editor who removed the section left this edit summary - "Re-removing controversy section - fully explained in 'Discussion Section' so was done with good reason. Dated/not relevant to vast majority of the bank's global operations (too-UK focused)". The removal has also been discussed on the talk page.

RBS

ref [1] which you tried in March as well. It was pointed out then that the reference does not quote the Cree as naming Shell, the Cree quote is BP and RBS not RDS: Shell is just mentioned by the journalist further down the article. It is therefore not a source for the claim that the Cree said this about Shell and in any case does not in any case pass WP:UNDUE --BozMo talk 19:38, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
