Stubbed[edit]

I don't know who uses that IP, but as you can see, 71.134.107.194 made some pretty drastic changes nearly converting the article into a hagiography, with no indication of which sections were backed up by which references. I'll let someone who knows what they're doing get it closer to the previous version. 138.4.59.28 (talk) 17:09, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted back to the edit that you cite. It seems that someone (I assume in good faith) assumed that because Mr Ryan changed jobs, everything about his previous employment should be deleted. It is exactly his previous employment that makes him notable, if he is indeed notable. His current role alone would be unlikely to make him a notable person, I can imagine. The article has been reverted back to a September 2008 edit. Perhaps some useful edits between then and the mess it had become by March are lost in the revert, but they were lost in the March edit anyway.Wikipeterproject (talk) 22:11, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Changes by 71.134.107.194[edit]

71.134.107.194 has been at it again. I have again reverted back to a previous edit. Perhaps 71.134.107.194 is a related party trying to put a certain spin on the article, but it's a poor edit and doesn't improve the article at all. Wikipeterproject (talk) 23:02, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, 71.134.107.194 is an IP address for Kerr and Wagstaffe, a law firm in San Francisco. Seems that several of the firm's attorneys have some direct or indirect association with Ryan - for example here: [1]. Wikipeterproject (talk) 23:07, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
