Please see my comments on the talk page for the article you have been working on. You have to document all negative material, especially since this guy seems litigious. Also, a quibble: I don't think this is technically a Ponzi scheme - these people are getting helicopter pilot training. The only question is whether the market can absorb so many pilots and whether the company itself is delivering on guarantees to provide work. So, possibly fraudulent, but not technically a Ponzi scheme, which is an investment fraud where nothing of value is obtained. Brianyoumans 22:13, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

I think we don't want the "notice to Silver Stream Helicopters" section because that is just not the way a Wikipedia article is done; it is inherent in Wikipedia that everyyone has the right to edit an article. If someone tries to delete good material from the article, they will quickly learn how things work here. Also, having the notice in there makes it very obvious that this was put up as a challenge to Silver Stream and not as an objective piece on the company. I won't make any more changes, for now, until you are more finished with the article.

I would advise that you set up an account on Wikipedia and "watch" the article for changes; we can deal with vandalism of this article if it happens. Brianyoumans 23:59, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
