What are you talking about Anon? Are you new to wikipedia? I am citing Better Business Bureau numbers as well as note of sexual harassment charges by the federal government on the EOOC federal website. What could be more official?. Why do you keep blanking verifiable information?
Thank you for
your contributions to
Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an
edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to
American Laser Centers. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.

User9933, out of 12 edits to American Laser Centers you have made only one edit summary that was not automatically generated. And in that one "see talk, why are ALC employees removing BBB verifiable complaint numbers?", you are assuming bad faith. I was not referring to anything on the talk page. You did not leave a summary, I left a reminder. Fairly standard practice to help those who are new to Wikipedia editing. I will add that you are not the only editor failing to provide edit summaries on this article
Excuse me for mentioning it but you had 28 edits, 24.4.101.72 who you gave a terse 'warning' to, and called an "American Laser Centers Representative" (see
DIFF) had 967.
On the
American Laser Centers talk page, you began by assuming bad faith on the part of editors who removed unsourced additions, as is their right. See
wp:verify. You ask "Are you affiliated with the company?". Bad faith again. I strongly suggest that you start to
Assume Good Faith and civilly discuss possibly controversial changes with those who remove them rather than assuming a
Conflict of Interest. See also
Bold, Revert, Discuss for guidance.
Another editor has left a list of links below, I suggest you take a look at basic Wikipedia policies.
Neutral Point of View and
Undue as in giving undue weight to either positive or negative factors in an article. This article now has about 35% of it's text devoted to 'negative' comment. That may be undue weight, as I don't work for the company I have no POV on that, so far.
Anon editors have as much right as registered editors to edit Wikipaedia, but everyone is expected to conform to policy. That includes the
Civility policy.
'Soapbox' may also be of interest. As you made 3 reversions in a short period make sure you look up '
Edit warring' or
3RR policy which only allows 3 reversion in a 24 hour period on any article (some exceptions allowed).
Happy editing!
