I would suggest that removing all reference to Ford's drunken hockey enthusiasm constitutes whitewashing, for one thing. CJCurrie 04:00, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

The office expense information was including in an obviously partisan manner. There might be grounds for returning it in an improved form, but the older version was unacceptable. CJCurrie 04:10, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rob Ford

The article was protected recently due to your edit war with CJCurrie. Once the protection was lifted, you went right back at it and repeated your edit war. In my book, that's vandalism.

I reviewed your edits and have a few comments:

  • You should be careful with the word alleged. I reviewed the cited articles and they don't allege anything.
  • The Howard Moscoe edit is a copy of the text on the Moscoe article. Unless you can expand on the context in the Ford article I don't think it needs repeating here.
  • I like the point about office budgets. Should be kept but reworded. I don't see why Holyday needs to be mentioned.
  • Councillors frequently change committees during council terms so I don't think it worth mentioning them unless their committee work is notable. If you want to include something about the taxi drivers, you need to provide a citation.
  • Removing text from a current article is bad editing behaviour, especially if it is properly cited. If something isn't cited you should add the [citation needed] tag. If it isn't updated within a reasonable period, say 6 months, then I think it is OK to remove it.
