Recent stuff

Rangasyd, as usual, good edits! But we've managed to creep details about his son into the subject's article again. In what way is Moses' car stuff related to Eddie except that the ICAC decided to save time and investigate them concurrently? There's plenty to cover without trying to artificially tie him to other stuff, surely? Stalwart111 13:13, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, Stalwart 111. Thanks. I hear ya. Edits revised. Let me know if you have any further suggestions. Cheers. Rangasyd (talk) 13:52, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, that'll do it, looks good. Great work! Stalwart111 14:04, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thnx. zzzzzzzz Rangasyd (talk) 14:06, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Stalwart111: This edit to the lede now includes the words convicted criminal. Do you think this is appropriate? Rangasyd (talk) 14:47, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Operation Credo

It seems Obeid was also involved in corruption around Australian Water Holdings and the Sydney Water Corporation, as noted in Operation Credo by NSW ICAC. I can't be bothered editing the main page, but leave this note here for those who can be bothered to look.
