Talk:Darragh MacAnthony

message: The last couple of days have seen an edit war on this article centring on MacAnthony's business interests. On the one hand, there is some material which should not be included – the policy on biographies of living persons states that unsourced or poorly sourced negative material must be removed. On the other hand some of the material which has been removed does not fit this description. The bit about the Sunday Times Rich List is adequately sourced. The investmentpropertyrumours blog is not a reliable source, and is thus not appropriate. The London Gazette is fine, but needs more context. All it says is that a company has been voluntarily wound up. Oldelpaso (talk) 17:17, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit warring 

message: I am aware that Darragh MacAnthony does not wish his failed property empire to be made public knowledge but it is and activities around those failures will be addressed.  Please refrain from damaging the content on this article.  If they are not factually accurate please discuss do not just damage the entry.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by HuttonIT (talk • contribs) 22:36, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit Removals 

message: It is evident that his page is now being used for self publicity and nothing more.
If anyone has any news about Darragh MacAnthony then join the discussion.  Editing the main page for self publicity without verification and only reference to self promotion material, I am sure, is not within the Wiki remit.  
We need a moderator to do something about this or lock the page to prevent the MacAnthony fans or even himself promoting him.HuttonIT (talk) 16:35, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I feel that the reference to Entrepreneur should be removed as it may embrace Wiki when the truth behind how MacAnthony got his millions from when the matter goes before the Spanish courts.  His employ now is simply that of Football Chairman.  In November 2010 he resigned as the Administrator of his own holding company, Overseas Property Group SA, Société Anonyme, registered in Luxembourg but is still suspected to be the sole shareholder of what remains of his empire.  Despite telling the world he had nothing to do with his companies since 2008 leaving the companies to others.  HuttonIT (talk) 22:02, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Self Publicity Does Wiki Allow this? 

message: There is a need to clean up the Business Interests area.  There is reference to MacAnthony's MRI property and MRI TV but not the fact that most are now insolvent and left millions owing and hundreds of customers with no properties they thought they were buying.
MRI TV Insolvency is documented in the London Gazette
There are other sources like companies house to show MRI Overseas Properties in the UK was liquidated but I feel someone should consider these entries because Wiki still shows MacAnthony as a successful business man yet he has left a trail of debt and devastation behind him which is not reflected accurately in Wiki and as I am viewed as a disgruntled customer, although not, someone independent should do the research and alter the section.

replies: text: As no one has bothered I have added references to three of the MacAnthony companies which have been liquidated or are in the process of being liquidated.  References are to the London Gazette and the Irish insolvency Journal.HuttonIT (talk) 21:50, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  MacAnthony Companies 

message: I have just had a more thorough look at the article and the references have been vandalised to include self promotional garbage to and to include spurious and moving MSN searches.
Wiki administrators need to take a very close look at this article and seriously consider their options as I and certainly MRISG should take a back seat as we both should not be seen as a part of or drawn into any more controversy with this page.HuttonIT (talk) 10:04, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  References Vandalised Too 

message: This page appears to be being vandalised again.  This time by []  I have suggested in the past that this entry should be either locked or deleted to prevent such vandalism and the use of Wiki to self promote and re-write history.
Any suggestions? HuttonIT (talk) 10:55, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: HAve added a welcome note. Also added about weblinks, just a mention. Most probably a COI from the IP. Will throw a spam warning, might work if not I agree on an RPP. Murry1975 (talk) 11:14, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  Murry1975 thanks I suspect the culprit is someone from MacAnthony Media, going by the IP address Peterborough is nearby and possibly believe it to be the Media Man from the POSH club.  As you can see this is not the first instance of self-promotion and Wiki vandalism.
It also appears they are trying to promote the Helping Hands Group of which Darragh MacAnthony appears to be the Chair. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/The_Helping_Hands_Group where the same comment about his book is shown HuttonIT (talk) 12:48, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
