Manpower
[edit] Hello, I'm ThaddeusSholto. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions 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. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:22, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Okay Thank you so much. I will surely correct it Mrlookman1 (talk) 15:33, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
All of your edits consist of adding content so you can reference it so "the #1 Local Business Directory in Nigeria". This is not a reliable source and it is WP:REFSPAM. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:22, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:30, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you I will learn more. Mrlookman1 (talk) 15:40, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks you sir I will not use it again Mrlookman1 (talk) 12:46, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- Can I use other source? Mrlookman1 (talk) 12:47, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks you sir I will not use it again Mrlookman1 (talk) 12:46, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 12:25, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
Overlinking
[edit]Hi - I have reverted a few of your edits, such as at Mancherial, for overlinking - so I have come to explain the reason.
As explained at WP:OVERLINKING we only link the first use of a term in any main section of an article, and we do not normally link:-
- Everyday words understood by most readers.
- Names familiar to most readers, including;- major countries, major cities, major languages, major nationalities/ethnicities and major religions
- Common units of measurement, years and dates
There are many articles where these are already, incorrectly, linked; however, we are trying to reduce this, not increase it - Thanks - Arjayay (talk) 19:12, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you sir! Noted Mrlookman1 (talk) 19:57, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
