RE: Edits to Kirksville, Missouri -- While your intentions are good, please understand that information about locations of AED's in the community does not meet the criteria and accepted formatting of information normally included in Wikipedia articles. As another veteran editor, Omnedon, explained in the first reversion of your info it is non-encyclopedic, and lacks relevance to the scope of the article. If you'll take the time to check articles for other cities on Wikipedia, you'll find they don't normally include such minutia in them either. If you feel that there is a special reason why it absolutley must be included in the Kirksville article then please rather than Edit war I suggest you put the subject up for discussion on the articles talk page (Talk:Kirksville, Missouri) so that a consensus or reasonable compromise may be reached by all. As someone who resides in Kirksville myself, I am well aware of wonderful efforts all those involved with NEMO Heart Health have put forward with the AED program. However as a veteran Wikipedia editor I also know that the information is outside the norm of what qualifies as pertinent in one of our articles. I hope that you can understand that and will stop re-inserting the information back into the article. Much thanks. Sector001 (talk) 21:41, 25 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
