Thanks for archiving talk:New Zealand National Front. There was a glitch in the name so I moved it and tossed in a talkheader at the same time.   Will Beback  talk  14:48, 1 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Ticket#2010100410009624 edit

Dear JHumphries and Will Beback,

I sent an email to Wikipedia with a concern about a comment made on a page about the organisation I represent, which I reproduce below. As you can see they advised me either to go to the Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard or to contact yourselves, and I am approaching yourselves in the first instance. I am now aware from my 'talk page' that it is preferable for me not to use this user name for which I apologise but it was never my intention to regularly post messages on Wikipedia.

The email and the reply are below, I would be grateful for your help or advice in this matter.

Dear Wikipedia,

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Swinton_Circle&action=edit&section=1

Please can we bring to your attention a claim made on the above 'Talk Page' by '91.111.111.39 (talk) 13:29, 21 March 2010 (UTC) Alan Harvey, Chairman, the Swinton Circle - 21st March 2010' in particular the line "one of two disgrunted expelled members of the organisation (Messrs. Allan Robertson and Daniel Wilkinson) who were expelled for gross misconduct at the beginning of 2009"Reply

I can confirm under oath of perjury that neither Messrs. Allan Robertson nor Daniel Wilkinson have been expelled from the Swinton Circle. Claims of "gross misconduct", which are unsubstantiated, would seem to be potentially libellous or defamatory.

Having read your policy we do not believe we are in a position to edit this page being both one of the persons named and the representative of the organisation which the article is about.

On a possibly related matter we received an email from Wikipedia stating that "Someone from the IP address 91.111.100.223 requested that we send you a new login password for the English Wikipedia." A login name was specially created by us to post one message on your 'mediation pages' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2010-03-4/Swinton_Circle), but we have not used the login name since. Whilst we are happy to "safely ignore this message" we thought it should also be brought to your attention that someone has tried to gain access to a login we created.

Allan Robertson

Chairman of the London Swinton Circle

Firstly, please accept my apologies for the delay in this response. As I'm sure you can imagine, the Wikimedia Foundation receives thousands of emails per day and as such we occasionally experience a back-log in our email queue. I can only apologise for this oversight.

Unfortunately, as an OTRS volunteer, I am unable to change the article substantially without community consensus. However, I can advise you on how to proceed from here.

You may wish to make a post to our neutrality noticeboard, which can be found here: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view/Noticeboard>. Please ensure that you state your conflict of interest when posting as this will allow our editors to assist you in the best manner possible.

Similarly, you may wish to speak to specific, interested editors who can be found on the article's talk page here: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Swinton_Circle>. I would especially recommend speaking to JHumphries or Will Beback regarding the issues you have been facing.

I apologies that I cannot help you in a more direct manner. However, should you require any additional assistance or information I will endeavour to help as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely,

Elena Salvatore

I would add that I have received two further emails in the last week for a new login password from IP address 91.109.218.128 and IP address 91.109.252.110. I am happy for this user name to be erased if it is a problem.

As per Elena Salvatore's advice I state my "conflict of interest" in this matter as per my original email.

Allan Robertson,

Chairman of the London Swinton Circle

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ivor Benson, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Crown Commonwealth League of Rights (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
