Talk:Flying Matters

message: I have put a lot of effort into getting this article together and learnt a lot in the process (both about wikipedia and Flying Matters). I have responded to the 'marked for deletion' comment by moving the controversies into a 'Controverses' section, and moving the factual stuff (such as membership) nearer to the top. It really needs contributions from others now and it also needs proof reading (I am blind to typos). I will use my contacts to try to achieve this, but more input would be welcome; in particular I am interested in thoughts on the 'Timeline' section; should this be removed? Personally I think it is very interesting to see the historical development, but can also see the counter-argument. I hope that the article will be accepted soon and I intend to play a much lower profile role with it from now on. PeterIto (talk) 09:54, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Help to get the article up to standard

message: Who is Flying1? Flying1 only ever contributes to this single articleSpecial:Contributions/Flying1 and has persistently removed well-referenced negative information. Here is a summary of the interventions (with links to the diff on the changes in question):
* 19th Dec  Removed details about Crosby Textor
* 20th Dec Removed reference to Crosby Textor
* 21st Dec(1) Useful improvements to accuracy
* 21st Dec(2) Removed the "Controversies" heading. Some other small generally useful changes and removal of POV
* Jan 3rd changes Removed the "Controversies" heading again. Removed reference to the IPCC warning of "'abrupt and irreversible' climate changes if emissions are not radically reduced. Removed reference to the UK government's commitment to reduce emissions by 60% from the Aviation and Climate change section. Made some other small useful corrections and clarifications
* Jan 9th changes Removed all entries from "see also" section (to other relevant aviation articles). Removed all external links (to relevant organisations not already mentioned). Added an external link to a Flying Matters clone site (xxx.org.uk) before removing it again. In the Polling Methods removed details of the questions asked in their poll (referenced to thie website). Removed all biographical information about Crosby Textor, including well referenced information regarding accusations of push polling and also accusations of being to close to the Australian government while representing Quantas
I am leaving a message on Flying1's talk page and repairing the article. Please note that I also have a live discussion with Factotem (documented on this page and elsewhere) about whether it is appropriate to have this much detail in a organisational article. Personally I think it is valuable as it gives a unique and peer reviewed insight  into the activities of an organisation even if a fuller description of the issues is given elsewhere.
