editWhilst you launch your formal complaint, I'd be obliged if you;d leave the article at the carefully referenced version, and not your apology & special pleading version. If you can add WELL REFERENCED content, that will be welcomed. But we will not tolerate the nonsense that you are seeking to turn the article into.
Note that there are more of us (people who wish to ensure the article is neutral and well referenced) than there are of you (A singleton who wants to whitewash the article). You will inevitably lose a revert war. Your only option is to negotiate if you have issues with the article. I suggest you do this on the article's talk page. --Tagishsimon (talk) 10:51, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
- Be aware also of WP:3RR. It would be a shame to lose you to a block before you had time to explain in detail what is wrong with the article. --Tagishsimon (talk) 10:58, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
- You mistake "truth" for "verifiable". Suffice to say, you need to verify with references any changes you make. This codswallop about sending information to administrators is just not how wikipedia works.
- You should also read WP:COI and if, as I suspect, you have a COI (because who else would be an apologist for a diploma mill?) then you should declare it so that there is no uncertainty. --Tagishsimon (talk) 11:23, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm not from New Zealand. About the Canterbury University of the Seychelles article -- please read Wikipedia's rules on verifiabilty vs. "truth", that will be a good start. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 11:56, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
- I would like to say three things. First, I'd like to welcome you to Wikipedia. You may wish to visit some of the policies and guidelines linked to in the welcome message added above. Second, I'd like to point you to the wp:dispute resolution guideline. Third, I'd like to add support to Tagishsimon's statement about there is more to "us" than just one or two.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you. --Dynaflow babble 20:20, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
Canterbury University of the Seychelles debate
editYou'll find the debate here: Talk:Canterbury University of the Seychelles#Questionable reference. You posted your contribution to the article - that's not the done thing. Each article has an associated talk page for comments. --Tagishsimon (talk) 20:54, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
