Adding office locations and buildings is not making this a directory - it is merely demonstrating the firm's international scope and showing the various office buildings they currently occupy. There are no contact details, mailing addresses or links on how to contact those specific locations. Please do not delete this ever again. Welcome!
Hello, Mikeytheczechoslovak, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Squire Patton Boggs does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.
There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Dear Drmies,
Thank you for your comments on my reversion of the Squire Patton Boggs Wikipedia page:
"Unfortunately, your edit to Squire Patton Boggs does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media."
I disagree, as the information I posted on the page is directly sourced from the firm's website, and as such they are factually correct. I do not see any lack of neutrality in listing a firm's office locations for fellow Wikipedians to see.
Moreover, from WikipediaNOTDIR: Wikipedia is not "[t]he White or Yellow Pages. Contact information such as phone numbers, fax numbers and e-mail addresses are not encyclopedic."
Your deletions did not cover phone numbers, fax numbers, or email addresses, as there weren't any listed. Your edit removed references to the cities in which this firm has a presence, along with the buildings, which I added purely out of my interest in architecture.
From WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: "In Wikipedia discussions, editors point to similarities across the project as reasons to keep, delete, or create a particular type of content, article or policy. These "other stuff exists" arguments can be valid or invalid."
I think you need to demonstrate why my WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS post is invalid. It still seems to me that such a list of office locations is useful for determining the geographic reach of the firm.
Moreover, if you visit the page of Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom or Jones Day, you will notice that it too does feature office locations and building details. Either you are proportionate and edit that too, or you please leave the page with the office locations.
Thank you for your understanding.

[edit]Your recent editing history at Squire Patton Boggs shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You appear to be at five reverts on that article in approximately the last 24 hours. Dolescum (talk) 19:00, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use Wikipedia for what appear to be promotional purposes, you may be blocked from editing. Drmies (talk) 19:05, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
