Hi M a c,

Twice you have deleted information related to the work related to the Poppy Appeal on the Buckley Jewellery page. I am requesting that you could please let us keep the paragraph that mentions the poppy brooches that we produce for the RBL in order to help them raise funds (which we do at no profit of our own). Whilst you might consider it to be trivial, for us it is important to have the information readily available, as during previous poppy campaigns there have been many articles and enquiries from large areas of the national press in Britain, and we therefore do not wish to be misinterpreted or misrcredited in the press again in 2012. It is important for this information to be on the page during October when the Poppy Appeal is in full flow, and was the crux for making the wiki page. Our company page does not rank highly when searching for information about the poppies, hence our desire to have this information available on wiki. I hope you can see the sense in this, and I do genuinely believe it to be a cause noteworthy enough to warrant a mention anyway. We have now raised several million pounds for the RBL through our hard work, and this week poppies have been requested by Buckingham Palace so we are expecting more press attention.

Thanks and regards.

The problem as I see it is that the work related to the Poppy Appeal takes up a disproportionate part of the article, and could be seen as promotional. It would be acceptable as a footnote to a substantial article, but there is very little material to tell us anything about the company itself. That should be the priority before any sideline activities are covered . . Mean as custard (talk) 09:08, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
