Thank you for uploading images/media to Wikipedia! As you may know, there is another Wikimedia Foundation project called Wikimedia Commons, a central media repository for all free media. In future, please upload media there instead (see m:Help:Unified login). That way, all of the other language Wikipedias can use them too, as well as our many sister projects. This will also allow our visitors to search for, view and use our media in one central location. If you wish to move previous uploads to Commons, see Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons (you may view previous uploads by going to your user contributions on the left and choosing the 'file' namespace from the drop down box (or see [1]). Please note that non-free content, such as images claimed as fair use, cannot be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons. Help us spread the word about Commons by informing other users, and please continue uploading!

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Fonio and other articles, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing their websites from appearing on Wikipedia. Dougweller (talk) 16:12, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Please see WP:SPAMNAME. Note that I have deleted your userpage as obvious advertising, see WP:UP#NOT. Dougweller (talk) 16:22, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
- Did you read the two links explaining why I took the actions I did? I'm assuming you haven't read them yet, please do. As for the other articles, although I have no reason to think they won't meet our notability criteria, you need to read WP:ORG and not create an article without making sure you don't follow that guideline. You also need to read WP:COI as you have problems there. WP:FIRST gives a lot of guidance, but note that it says "Do not create pages about yourself, your company". Bottom line I think -- read all these links, then go to our Editor Assistance requests noticeboard at WP:EAR and ask what you should do. You also need to make it clear if your account is just for one individual. I'll copy this to your talk page. The other articles are pretty bad really - I'm not saying they should not exist, just that they are not encyclopedic - articles are expected mainly to report what other reliable sources say about the subject and they don't do that at all, for a start. You wouldn't expect to find such articles in an American encyclopedia, would you? Please also note that there are clearly benefits, even if not financial, for you to have links to your website and an article. Dougweller (talk) 15:22, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
In addition, accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing, and your username should reflect this.
Wikipedia is not a promotion website; this kind of activity is considered spam on Wikipedia, and forbidden by policies, and usernames that appear to be promotional also violate our username policy. Editing on Wikipedia is not intended to be used to promote anyone, or anything, and its use for that purpose will result in blocking of the account involved.
If you feel that there has been a mistake, please appeal this block by adding the text{{unblock|Your reason here}} below or contacting the administrator who has blocked you. Your reason should include a clear response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy. Please check that your new username has not already been taken here.
