Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia as we drive for print or DVD publication; see the welcome page to learn more.

Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Engrish. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Newton2 18:58, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] South Africa

Concerning [1] this change. In South Africa (and I should know since I'm South African) "coloured" refers to people of mixed race whether or not they descend from the Koi or not. So, if a black person has a child with a white person, that child is considered "coloured". Mikker (...) 12:13, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edits to Afrikaans

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. --Adriaan90 (Talk|Contribs) 10:21, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

You added the sentence "It is however more likely that the withdrawal was done for business reasons and not in support of Afrikaans" on the Afrikaans page on why Johann Rupert possibly decided to withdraw a number of advertisements. I have not heard of or read anything about this in the media. Could you please provide a citation, else I will have to remove that sentence. Thank you. SumDude 09:51, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edits to MXit

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! --Adriaan90 (Talk|Contribs) 16:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
