A major issue that I need to discuss with you is about the article Nur Ali Elahi. Since he seems to be the same person as Ostad Elahi what I have done is redirect that article to the Ostad Elahi article. We do not have more than one article on each person generally, and there is no good reason to have a completely different article on this name. Academic Challenger 08:01, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia, as you did in Ulysses S. Grant. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links as long as the content abides by our policies and guidelines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. --Nlu (talk) 08:17, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits, such as those you made to Elonka Dunin, are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the hard work of others. Thanks. Englishrose 09:43, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
