Reversion of reverts
editI have reverted three edits which were reversions themselves, so that we can discuss and agree on whether the original edits should stay on this article. Thanks for voicing an opinion. XOttawahitech (talk) 14:35, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- You are practicing WP:OWN if you revert every reversion to this page. None of the three are controversial and one was discussed[1] which you're conveniently forgetting since you took part in it too. The judge doesn't have an article and the Government of Detroit category is for agencies of the government. Just look at what is listed there....William 14:41, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- You are mistaken User:WilliamJE. I like to encourage others to contribute to this article. Contributions such as the ones added by User: Pechmerle (and others) is what changed this article from its very humble beginnings to the source of information it is today drawing over 20,000 reader views to wikipedia every month. Can you match that?
- If you have concerns about the fact that I added back information which you removed, lets discuss it here instead of edit-warring OK? Ottawahitech (talk) 15:04, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
- Your statement 'Can you match that' is a clear sign of your practicing WP:OWN. You think you're entitled to decide how this article is edited because of work you did to this article. Clearly disregarding what Wikipedia's Manual of Style says a great deal too, as does your reversions of yesterday. WP:ELRCmakes it clear that the link you put back in the article doesn't belong.
- If you want me to bring this to ANI, I will....William 15:16, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Belle Isle cannot be sold?
editThe caption for the image of Belle Isle says "View of Downtown Detroit from Belle Isle Park, one of Detroit's several assets that cannot be sold" but immediately in the section it is pictured, it says that Belle Isle can be sold ("other city assets that could be sold include the Coleman A. Young International Airport[34] and the Belle Isle Park") Cdiesh (talk) 01:30, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
