Talk:John Bourn

user "bluegrouper" has removed the controversy section that was added. If you look at what "bluegrouper" has contributed to wikipedia you find he has solely removed criticism from the National audit office article and from the article of its head (this article).

Um, no. If you'd bothered to look at the history you will see that I actually added the original criticisms, see [1]. --Bluegrouper 18:12, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry my mistake. "bluegrouper" has solely removed criticism contributed to the National audit office article and the article of its head (this article). I have added an encyclopedic "criticism section". I feel this information has a right to be on here. please correct any errors I have made Chendy 00:16, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

I have condensed justification for travel as it is needlessly long and comes across as overly defensive.Chendy 11:34, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

It seems Bluegrouper solely edits this and the NAO page. Bluegrouper consistantly alters sourced statements on this page, with either discussion or by providing sources. Bluegrouper merely changes/distorts statements while leaving the original sourcing, providing the illusion that the Bluegrouper statements are sourced. I feel there may be some Wikipedia:Vanity_guidelines issues. Chendy 12:50, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

please provide a source for "On 22 of these, he was accompanied by his wife Ardita, as befits a public official of his standing." - It is assumption that is not obvious to me and so needs to be sourced.Chendy (talk) 11:16, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
