If you want to know why the paragraph "keeps being deleted", you are welcome to discuss on the article talk page about that. Thank you. --Cyclopiatalk 18:59, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
I have now opened a paragraph on the Dissertation talk page to discuss the issue. --Cyclopiatalk 00:15, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Conflict of interest
[edit]
If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
- 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.
A personal message: The reason for this warning is that, checking your edit history, it seems all your edits are about adding links to books by a single specific author. While you are welcome to add content from your published work in WP if it helps the article and your work is considered a reliable source, please consider the text above and discuss your edits with other editors on the talk page. Thanks. --Cyclopiatalk 00:34, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Please discuss this issue at the talk page before adding it to the article again. Further attempts at adding this material without consensus is going to be regarded as edit warring and may result in a block. Regards --Saddhiyama (talk) 11:08, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
