Dear Matthjis,

Apparently you have chosen to change names of shops which have been
surveyed in the field. Please do not assume that your armchair knowledge is
somehow more valuable than someone who lives in the area and actually goes
out and looks what it says on the front of the shops.

I could have done many of these changes, but strangely decided not too. I
even did some work on stores in the co-operative movement, where someone
else had already erroneously changed names.

Your actions however well-intentioned are far too hasty, and do not appear
to respect the clear guidelines set out in the Mechanical edit policy.

Regards,

Jerry Clough
