Advertising and suspected copyright violation edit

The bulk of the text was added in these three edits by Patdoy (talk · contribs) in 2007. Observe that the text was added without any formatting, is very similar to this page from www.thecrane.com, and that the owner of the hotel is named on that page as Paul Doyle.

I suspect that the text is a copy+paste of the 2007 version of the hotel's history page and is therefore a copyright violation.

That aside, the page is too promotional to be an encyclopedia article and has no reliable sources, independent of the hotel's web site.

I am therefore reducing it to a stub. -- John of Reading (talk) 13:53, 29 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
