Edit war edit

There appears to be an edit war going on over whether this venue is for-profit or non-profit. Please discuss it here. Beasting123 (talk) 14:53, 26 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

The false and unaccountable information was added by one user, who has repeatedly put that claim back in. As far as I'm aware, if you add text to an article and someone edits or removes it you aren't supposed to edit war to retain that text. There is no indepedent references available for the claim.

Hello IP. I'm rather confused by your repeated attempts to remove the 'not for profit' statement from this article, especially as this appears to be the only page you edit on Wikipedia. The article has been through a Good Article review and contains several references to support the claim. You seem to be suggesting that both the Brudenell's official website and its owner are lying about it? Why would they do this? Cavie78 (talk) 11:17, 30 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
