This editor tries to avoid the pitfalls here at WT Free Press that closed Lubbock County Register. Today some public record was "drag&pasted" onto another website and the public employees first names were deleted. The website credited me as the source of the public record. Anytime public record is altered it becomes "flawed". I do not edit public record other than leaving the odd cents off of a yearly salary. The website in question was notified that the altered public record was not from the data I received and my name was deleted from that entry. I prefer readers link to any entry here at WT Free Press and discourage the "drag&paste" of data here. This editor will work with any website and I also do retractions,clarifications or deletions if need be.
