Last time I looked, my name was on the BVE Wikipedia page? :)

Yes, I removed it because it was done by a vandal who did not conform to the page standards.

What do you mean did not comform to the page standards?

Do you mean the website is not in a condition where it could be host?

P.S I'm the vandal. (Didn't know about it, sorry)

I think the information on there could do with updating. Like Lists of places to download stuff or lists of routes avalible.

LondonBVE - I knew you were the 'vandal', I could tell by the style of your writing, what you put in was defacing the page as you were putting personal opinions in, and that is not the idea of Wikipedia, it is meant to be factual, not really opinions!

Not really, I'm following the guidelines which Wikipedia impose...

No-one "owns" Wikipedia (well, spare Jimbo Wales). The guidelines are community based and are enforced by various members in the spirit of enhancing the article.

FOr those unaquatined with the open source world to whom this is an alien concept, apologies.
