Your revert at Lake Carroll (Illinois) edit
Hello, I see you reverted my edits at Lake Carroll (Illinois). I left a very clear explanation why I removed your edits, but you have not given any for why you re-did them. The material is completely inappropriate, it's just a bunch of minutiae about amenities from a website promoting a housing subdivision in the area. I don't see any encylopedic reason it should be there, Wikipedia is not an "about us!!!" page for the local housing board. Our articles are for a global audience, so it doesn't really help readers in Japan, or readers 40 years from now, to know which dock they can park their sailboats on.
What is useful is information about the history of the lake and communities around it, geological or hydrological information about the body of water, info about the wildlife there and any pollution issues, etc. I'm going to remove your text again, given these explanations, and I'm going to post this explanation on the page's Talk page. If you want to re-instate it again, I suggest you have a very clearly defensible reason for it in your Edit Summary, and if possible on the Talk page, in which case we'll ask for a neutral party to step in and judge the best way to go forward MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:04, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
- On closer look, I see that you removed the promotional stuff, my apologies, I had only seen the revert, not that you made further edits. The statistics you have added are indeed useful, though ideally we should user a stronger reference rather than a community site. Is there any state Parks/Outdoor authority publication or website that verifies those figures?
- Also, if you live in the area, it would be great if you could add some photos of the lake itself to help illustrate the article. See WP:Uploading images for information. Sorry for my initial confusion. MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:07, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
