Information icon Hello, I'm Deb. 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.Deb (talk) 18:02, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I’m so sorry, self promotion, soap box or advertising was certainly not my intention.

In the same way that James Dyson features on Wikipedia how do other inventors get recognition? 92.40.196.73 (talk) 18:21, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If they meet the Wikipedia:Notability criteria, someone else will at some stage write an article about them. Wikipedia is not so much a way of gaining recognition as a way of informing readers about people who are already recognised as notable. Deb (talk) 07:58, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
