Your edits

Welcome to Wikipedia! We could really use your help to create new content, but your recent additions do not assert the notability of their subjects and have been reverted or removed. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. 08:18, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Also, Wikipedia is not a hosting service for your literary works. Regarding Roger White, there is more than one people in the world with this name, so you can't regard information about other people with the same name with this name as "incorrect". Perhaps you could write about him under Roger White (poet) instead. 08:26, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. 08:26, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Copyrighted text

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Roger White (poet) article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! - Lucky 6.9 15:20, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

• Ah, glad you caught me. Best thing to do is to repost the text and claim ownership on the talk page and its release under the GFDL license. If it needs to be brought in line with style and layout standards, we can worry about it later. Thanks. - Lucky 6.9 05:24, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

New book??

Ron, this is really disappointing. Put it on a blog or listserv or something. Smkolins (talk) 12:32, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Exactly, Wikipedia is not meant as a means of promotion (see WP:SOAP) and is also not a place to promote Truth. Wikipedia has Verifiability and No original research, which states that for content to be added to an article it must be sourced from reliable sources. Personal websites, blogs, and other self-published material are not reliable sources]]. There is also the issue of notability. Regards, -- 14:15, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Sayyid Kazim Rashti, 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, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

1. editing or creating 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; and
3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Momo san ^Gespräch 03:08, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Sayyid Kazim Rashti. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Momo san ^Gespräch 03:37, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Shoghi Effendi. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
