May 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm Smalljim. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Drom fragrances because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. We do not use phrases like "that passion continues to resonate from the core of drom’s fragrances" in our articles! —SMALL JIM 10:36, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for you message. I don't want to make any advertising, I copy/paste parts of the 'drom 100 years book." But some informations are wrong on the wikipedia page and I don't think that wrong informations are the spirit of wikipedia wright? So i'm going to correct everything again but WITHOUT any sentence who can appear 'commercial'. Please take time to check that my informations are real. Source: http://oi59.tinypic.com/rvk2ok.jpg

Welcome![edit]

Hello, Alexisshino, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Drom fragrances, seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes.

Next problem...[edit]

I've removed your addition to Drom fragrances again. It's apparent that you have simply copied the text of the book with the photo at http://oi59.tinypic.com/rvk2ok.jpg. That's a violation of copyright (unless you can provide proof that the copyright owner has allowed this specific use). In general, while we can make use of the content of published works, we must re-write it using our own words – see our copyright policy. You are welcome to add the history of the company, but you must do so in your own words, and you will also need to provide a full reference to the source that you used (full title, author, publisher, publication date, page numbers). I hope this helps, though I'm sure it's somewhat discouraging. —SMALL JIM 14:07, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
