Thanks for registering. I assume you work for the Hurt Building's owners; we welcome your contributions, but ask that your additions remain strictly neutral, and that they avoid promotion. If you have any references from reliable sources you'd like to use, I'd be glad to help out with formatting. We ask that you not remove references that already exist. Also, buildings aren't "members" of the National Register - they're listed or placed on the list. If you haven't already, please read Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy. Please be aware that no one "owns" any article, and that you do not hae a veto over content for the article. I have left the bulk of your contribution in place, as it appears to be factual and non-promotional. Acroterion _(talk) 18:46, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you've got any good pictures, we'd welcome your contribution - the ones we have don't even show the entire building, far less the rotunda. Keep in mind that Wikipedia is a free-content source, so any photographs you upload must be similarly free - make sure that neither the photographer notr the Hurt organization retains any rights beyond attribution. You may need to check with your counsel first, and you may be required to prove provenance via an OTRS ticket. I can help you with the logistics.

Seriously, please stop removing the references, and please stop rewriting the lede to a marketing tag. Please discuss here or on the article's talk page, but it's not good avoid response to valid concerns about your edits. Acroterion _(talk) 18:56, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

September 2010[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Hurt Building. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. I'm counting your edits as an IP. Acroterion _(talk) 18:58, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
