IHOP Edit 5th Nov 2011 edit

Hi

This is a message to TheRoadIsLong

Regarding my post on IHOP which you deleted (this was my first ever post on Wikipedia) I thank you if you posted a message on my help page, but it was quite general so leaves me feeling slightly confused as to what exactly I did wrong so there are a number of questions I would like to ask (1) Should I have asked permission from someone before editing the page (2) Was it the fact that it referred to other 'IHOPs' not directly related to IHOP KC (3) Is there any other way that my proposed addition of content would be acceptable on WikiPedia. There are some other minor questions but I think they depend on the answers to the above three questions. Your help and input would be much appreciated as, I think pointed out by you, this is my first attempted post. Regards and thanks for your input Philip Philanderson888 (talk) 05:08, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply



Hi TheRoadIsLong

I posted my reply onto your wall but you have removed it so I am not sure what to do : - I have re-copied the text onto my own wall and pasted it above. Now I am not sure how to communicate with you - I am not sure if you have said all that you will say on the matter or if I was to expect a response to my three questions above.

I would be grateful if you could at least let me know if I am to expect a response, or not.

Regards

I moved your comments to here Talk:International House of Prayer and responded there. The content you added was VERY promotional, unreferenced and in a tone not suitable for an encyclopaedia.Theroadislong (talk) 13:37, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
