  Please stop assuming ownership of articles as you did at City Point (Brooklyn). Behavior such as this is regarded as disruptive, and is a violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Please read up on Wikipedia's policies on collaborative editing and verifiable information. A lot of the recent edits to the page were not helpful contributions, as such, they were removed. If you would like to make edits to any portion of the encyclopedia they have to be encyclopedic, which is a living document. It can't be preserved in a poor state just for your class project, perhaps you should focus your energy in making the encyclopedia better, rather than worse? I can only imagine it'd result in a better grade if that's your concern. JesseRafe (talk) 20:48, 9 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
