Hello Donnyflyboy! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. If you decide that you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. You may also push the signature button located above the edit window. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary.

Spam

[edit]

Hi, this is no personal vendetta. Your edit pattern rang alarm bells and your edits were reverted according to Wikipedia convention. All messages were standard Wikipedia warnings.

I repeatedly left these warning messages on the talk page of the IP you were editing from giving you adequate information that you were in contravention of Wikipedia spam rules. The reason the IP was blocked was because, despite the warnings, you persisted with adding spam. I don't know that I can add anything that you will not be able to glean from the links I provided.

If you see instances of spam in other articles then you are fully entitled as a registered or anonymous user to delete them.

Regards

OK, I have removed the spam from the articles that you pointed out. Please feel free to help out wherever you see a need. As you pointed out, why should others get away with advertising when you have been prevented from placing adverts for your organisation? Unfortunately, since there are so many editors and so many articles it is not easy to spot the commercialism creeping in.
I am sure you will appreciate that there are numerous opportunities for people and companies to advertise their presence on the the internet, so Wikipedia is justly entitled to maintain a no-advertising policy.
