Refspamming

Hello, 103.164.138.55. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to sources you may be affiliated with.

Editing in this way is a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM); the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

If you wish to continue contributing, please first consider citing sources written by other reliable, secondary sources. If you wish to cite sources you may have a conflict of interest with, please start a new section on the article's talk page and add {{Edit COI}} to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.

COI

Hello, 103.164.138.55. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 23:13, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Copy/pasting copyrighted text

One of your recent edits has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder.

For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Sandra Jayat, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 04:26, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Sandra Jayat, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary.

Problem with your editing

Hello, 103.164.138.55,

It's not your place to remove ethnicities from articles that have been properly sourced. You may not believe there are Romanians who are part African or African-American but that's just your point of view, not what the sources say. Please do not act on your own opinion or prejudices or you will face a block from editing. I have reverted many of your edits.

You also can't just type {{delete}} on a page and expect it to be deleted. You have to have a reason to justify a page deletion. For speedy deletion, this means using one of the agreed upon criteria. Just saying an article should be deleted with no explanation will not lead to an article deletion. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:18, 11 October 2023 (UTC) Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

Wordpress sites are not reliable sources

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Menu/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 11:43, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
