Regarding revert of major copyedit at Ross's Landing

[edit]

Unfortunately, Erinanorton, you cannot claim ownership of the article, as you did with this edit. Feel free to add your additional information, but do not revert other people's good-faith contributions to any article, especially without explaining your reasons. The copyedit I made addressed several concerns with article, including: coatracking; Wikipedia Manual of Style issues; duplication of information and references; poorly narrated statements; grammatical issues; problems with wikification; link-farming; etc.

Wikipedia works by consensus, meaning agreement between editors: I respect your contributions, you respect mine. To totally revert a good faith edit that does not violate any Wikipedia policy, protocols, or original research parameters is not only poor form, but could be construed as vandalism. I will post some links to help get you started below. Thanks, GenQuest "Talk to Me" 21:24, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
