[edit] Edit

I have edited this page to do a number of things:

1. introduce the topic clearly,
2. avoid any obvious libel,
3. be even less clear about the identity of the victims,
4. change the tone to a more encyckopædic one &
5. put the events in chronological order.

No doubt I have failed in some respects. I have tried to show respect for the original author's work. Avalon 10:52, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Content removed as uncited, please add back with citation

I removed much of the uncited content. I welcome its return, with individual facts containing citations. Clearly a lot of important issues are now missing. The one unicted fact I kept in is the date of his resignation as pastor, as I don't wish to imply he still works there, when clearly he doesn't. --Rob 07:32, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AFD survival

Thanks for everyone's input on the AFD pages, the outside comments were appreciated. I hope folks can keep an eye out on this article to keep it neutral and to its subject matter. I'm staying out of this one from now on. Andyru 15:52, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] An important note about article history

For those reading the history of this article, please note that many revisions of this article have been deleted. So, the remaining history will falsely attribute changes to somebody who did not make them. In particular, history does not list the true creator of this article. So, unless your an admin who can see the real history, just disregard the old history. Ideally, an admin would delete all but the most recent version to avoid this problem. --Rob 07:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent edit

I beg to call into question the recent edit by RL Thorpe, which appears to delete pertinent information, and might, to a biased eye, be taken as whitewashing. I have not reverted it, as yet, preferring to seek a consensus. -- Simon Cursitor (talk) 08:44, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

I realize that should have added an edit summary - apologies. I removed material that was without citation. If this information is to be replaced then it must be done so with citations. I am currently checking the complete article for accuracy against the citations mentioned.RL Thorpe (talk) 23:04, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
