I need to clear up some things to proceed .... Is this the best way to communicate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DanWalter (talk • contribs) 16:05, 1 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

If you're doing this on Mr. Lonsdale's behalf, this would be a good time to read up on Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy and also page ownership. Deleting the text of the page, especially when the text is sourced and well-written is considered bad form. A lot of the information you added was basically redundant to what was already there without the benefit of citation or formatting. I suggest you discuss major overhauls to the article on this page. --Esprqii (talk) 16:13, 1 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

OK. Fair enough. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DanWalter (talk • contribs) 16:17, 1 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
