Graham, while I'm sure you don't want anything posted about your controversial claims. These edits are very fair, accurate, and cited with references to your own writings. It's important that you not continue to merely delete them because you don't like them. The first line on your page describing your expedition is that it is one journey without flying. Yet you flew multiple times. This is incompatible, and thus a controversial claim. You either flew during your journey, or you stopped your journey to fly. So either it's not "one journey" or it's not "without flying". It can't be both. The purpose of the update to your page is not to troll you as you commented, but to share the controversial claims with readers who may find these important and to provide a full understanding of the claims. Considering there is another traveler who is actively trying to achieve the goal of visiting all countries without flying in one journey, and appears to believe he will be the first, I think it's fair to say that your claim is controversial, and thus the edits should stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.108.134.211 ( talk) 00:36, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
The "controversy" stems from another traveler who disputes Mr. Hughes claims of a single unbroken journey without flight. Nobody is doubting or disputing Mr. Hughes incredible accomplishment, merely it being a single journey, thus the controversy. I think the "Odyssey Break" is a reasonable compromise and is unbiased and fair. ~ Criticalb — Preceding unsigned comment added by Criticalb ( talk • contribs) 01:43, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

The section Graham Hughes#Odyssey break includes "a continuous unbroken land journey to every every country" please remove one of the duplicate "every"s Arjayay ( talk) 18:29, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
BU Rob13 will be reported for violating the 3 revert rule for performing more than 3 reverts on the same page within a 24 hour period. A warning has been given BU Rob13's Talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hobsie ( talk • contribs) 10:43, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
Note, no citations exist in the section removed/reverted that supports claim to a "controversy" nor does it contain citation that any of the flights involved are in violation of the rules set out and agreed and verified by Guiness World Records - suggesting otherwise without citation is libellous. ~ Hobsie — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hobsie ( talk • contribs) 11:00, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
I think the Odyssey Break is a fair compromise for the page itself. But I still find it controversial, and thus a comment here on the talk section. I think if you take a break, then your journey, by it's very definition, is not continuous or unbroken. I would also ask if Graham did ANYTHING while on break, in the UK, to further his journey. Such as VISA's.... If Graham did, in fact, help his journey along while in the UK, then this would be part of the journey and Graham would have flown during the journey. ~Criticalb — Preceding unsigned comment added by Criticalb ( talk • contribs) 19:59, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
