Hello, I'm Theroadislong. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Free improvisation 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. Theroadislong (talk) 14:21, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I'm sorry if it appears that my changes were made to promote my book. I'm confused though - my other two books are referenced so I thought that mentioning the third would be appropriate, especially given that information about the London Musicians Collective page is extremely scanty.

There are very few books written purely about Free Improv, so I thought that people should be informed about what is actually out there. I'm also uncertain about any 'conflict of interest'.

I thought Wiki is about objectivity, but don' understand how three informative books about the subject contradicts this. But then again, I'm new to this, so may be missing something blindingly obvious

Thanks for getting back do promptly, by the way.

Wikipedia isn't a place to dump details of your books, if there is any content that could be sourced to them by alll means request an edit on the talk page here Talk:Free improvisation, but we don't "inform people" about what books are out there, sorry.
