Edits rejected edit
Hi, I made substantial edits to the page for the North Brevard Historical Museum. These edits were rejected and no longer appear.
I am trying to find out why this has happened. I am qualified to update this page since I am the current president of this organization. I updated the history of the organization, as well as hours, phone, artifacts contained, etc.
I would like to have this edit reinstated.
What happened and why?
Thanks Ed kindle. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.85.180.170 (talk) 03:28, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
- The edits were reverted as possible spam. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an organizations' website or a travel guide. Also, none of the information was referenced using reliable 3rd party sources. I recommend reviewing the Wikipedia:Manual of Style and some "good" articles to get a feel for how they're written. Good articles are ones with a green plus on the top right. One museum article to look at is National Museum of the Marine Corps (it has not been rated as a good article, but it's structure looks good to me). Also, since you are the president of the organization, it may be difficult to achieve NPOV. Hope that helps. FieldMarine (talk) 11:29, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Please stop removing my edits edit
Thanks - The information is factual from the organizations historical archives and has been validated by the organizations board of directors.
Please leave the posted update intact.

- Greetings. Your recent edit reads like spam & a tourist guide or the organizations website. See above comment for more information. They have been reverted. Also, please reference the information using reliable 3d party references. The organization's Board of Directors is generally not considered a 3d party reference, because they may not be able to achieve NPOV and are often subject to puffery. Thanks!
