== The Utica Comets State Audit Scandal needs to be shown. == |

Last year the Utica comets became the center of an audit scandal with Tom DiNapoli, NYS Comptroller. A LARGE number of accounting discrepancies, lack of competitive bidding and no-bid contract money going out to contractors (Usmail Electric, Whitestown NY) who are related to the president of the MVG association, a serious conflict of interest. As such this is relevant info ESPECIALLY in regards to the fact that the team is HEAVILY subsidized by NY taxpayers. There is another serious audit underway. |

Could the vandalism protection be removed from this article? It's been nearly 10 years since such issues have arisen, so I feel like it's safe to remove such protections. |

The Utica Comets State Audit Scandal needs to be shown.
[edit]Last year the Utica comets became the center of an audit scandal with Tom DiNapoli, NYS Comptroller. A LARGE number of accounting discrepancies, lack of competitive bidding and no-bid contract money going out to contractors (Usmail Electric, Whitestown NY) who are related to the president of the MVG association, a serious conflict of interest. As such this is relevant info ESPECIALLY in regards to the fact that the team is HEAVILY subsidized by NY taxpayers. There is another serious audit underway.

The "management" has undertaken a huge effort to remove any reference to their screwup and it will be noted, sooner or later.
This article has multiple issues incl. reference and length issues
[edit]I'll sign in and start the process to get some help for this one it's got a few issues and POV problems.
Also it seems padded up with a little too much info especially the history.
The "Comets franchise" doesn't seem to be the current name so why do we need a huge slab of history. I will flag and check other like-articles to get a handle on how far out of wack this one is.

- "Too much info"? Last time I checked, Wikipedia is not paper, so all reliably sourced info is welcome in any such article. I have already warned you before about removing all the sourced info, and really wish an admin would come and stop you. Tom Danson (talk) 12:18, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
- A good editor is what's needed here this article does have a lot if uncited info compared to like teams. It's a little ad-ish also and that's not acceptable on Wikipedia.

- Well, this franchise has the most history of any team in the AHL...what do you expect? Tom Danson (talk) 22:48, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
That's a bunch of the usual phony Utica overstatements. Care to prove that one Tom?
- I have a feeling all these different IPs vandalizing this article are all one and the same person...that's why I'm requesting indefinite semi-protection for the article. Tom Danson (talk) 03:33, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
That's ok Tom, just like other WP articles, each time you revert we wait a while roll the IPs and methodically go make 3-5 minor changes like dates and records on other random Wiki pages. Either fix the page or you'll never know how many pages get whacked. HUNDREDS already. Fix the bullshit here, end of story.
- Is that a threat? Tom Danson (talk) 17:05, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
- Well let's see...... 25 more tiny numeric edits and whacks. Keep talking.
- At LEAST have the guts to get a user account so that I can block you for the next vandalization you make. Tom Danson (talk) 02:50, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
- That's about the most retarded thing I ever heard of. Asking someone to sign up so you can block them? I bet you are from Utica aren't you Tom? Relax. I have several accts. Unfortunately you won't ever know which.
Ten more slaps coming up. Keep going. 32.131.128.168 (talk) 20:44, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
- Good luck editing protected articles. Buffaboy talk 23:37, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
- Good luck thinking there's not about a million more assfuk. You people really are pretty much a bunch of feeble newts aren't you?

- If I were an admin, I'd block ALL your IPs...I guess I'll have to nominate myself. Tom Danson (talk) 06:54, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
