Good day. Please do not remove large sections of historical content that relates to this article with no explanation. This is factual and referenced material. I invite you to share thoughts on the matter here. I am refering to this text, which has been removed a few times with no explanation:
"In the 1990s, criminal proceedings began against members of the Christian Brothers in Newfoundland, several of whom were teaching at STMC (Edward French, Joseph Burke, Edward English, and Kevin Short.[1] The proceedings were based on allegations of sexual and physical abuse against boys at the Mount Cashel Orphanage. It was alleged that the Brothers were allowed to escape prosecution at the time (1980s) if they left Newfoundland.[2] The subsequent lawsuits by victims of the Christian Brothers organization threatened to close the school in 2004.[citation needed] The story received considerable press coverage and was covered as widely as in Pakistan.[3]"

I left parts of your contributions, because they are true. But you need to provide proper citations. Your contribution seems bias. Wikipedia needs to provide a neutral point of view.
Also, I noticed that you started the articles on Kevin Short, Edward French, & Edward English at the same time and same information. I will edit your article on Joseph Burke. The reason being that his conviction was overturned.
It is unfortunate that these abuses happened. But STMC form BC is not responsible for what happened in Mount Cashel in Newfoundland. But like the victim's of Mount Cashel, STMC is also a victim of the actions of these brother's. I hope you can see this.
I've been as fair and respectfull as possible in editing this article. Iota 9 ( talk) 18:51, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
I do believe this story needs to be told. But not through STMC's history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Iota 9 ( talk • contribs) 19:17, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
No, I do not have any connections to the institution.
I hope this answers your question. In good faith, Iota 9 ( talk) 17:24, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
