Problematic edits[edit]

Hi again. Please refer to my comment here. Also, do you have a particular connection with that case or that website? Many thanks in advance. El_C 11:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you could only choose one entry to include that link/case in (which you may well wish to create an article about), which one would it be? El_C 11:09, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Discrimination do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Discrimination, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you.

As you seem to be involved in the links, please discuss on talkpages, and get consensus there. --Dirk Beetstra T C 11:16, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

March 2008[edit]

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Conflict of interest, you will be blocked from editing. Dekisugi (talk) 11:32, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know it's becoming overwhelming here[edit]

But please engage in discussion with myself or any of the other individuals who wrote to you here prior to adding that link again. Many thanks. El_C 12:07, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Paul Mackney[edit]

The link you are adding to Paul Mackney is causing confusion. Can you bring it up on Talk:Paul Mackney before reinserting it? Thanks. -WarthogDemon 20:34, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Paul Mackney. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. Dekisugi (talk) 18:42, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
