Hello, I'm Huntthetroll. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Otoplasty have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Huntthetroll (talk) 21:18, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Microtia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Ok. I just updated the citations and proper link to the PDF chapter.

Please take care to abide by Wikipedia's policy regarding promotional usernames. I took notice of your initial edits in part because your username suggested to me that you were a spammer or advertiser. Huntthetroll (talk) 21:53, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see. Does Internetebiz sound like a spammer? It is a user name that I use for most accounts. I tried internete, but it was taken. Let me know if I need to change the username.

I am not an administrator, but as a fellow user, I think it would be prudent to change your username. Transparency is key. If you are Dr. Charles Thorne, I think it would be ethical to indicate as such in your username. If not, then at least something better than some combination of "Internet" and "biz"/"business."

Furthermore, if you are being paid to add this information referring to and linking to Dr. Thorne's work, be sure to fully disclose any pertinent information under the Wikimedia Terms of Use. Huntthetroll (talk) 22:25, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
