Before you add more content about your technology, please make sure you understood Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines. Femto 12:44, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Please do not add commercial material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. Femto 20:50, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Femto 20:52, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia.

[1][2][3][4] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors. --Hu12 20:54, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jack Brabham Engines

Hi Malbeare. Thanks for your interest in the Jack Brabham article. Would you mind discussing the point on the Jack Brabham talk page? I won't replace the link again until we have had a chance to discuss the arguments for and against. Many thanks. 4u1e 18:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Actually, looking at your edit history, I see you don't edit every day (and nothing wrong with that!) I'll leave it until the end of Friday - If I've heard nothing from you by then, I'll restore the link as I can see nothing wrong with it - it's the company he is currently involved in. If we were talking about someone on the board of Volvo, I wouldn't be surprised to see a link to the company in their article. I'll also have a look through the various Wikipedia policies and see if there's anything there which should guide us one way or the other. Cheers. 4u1e 19:04, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
WP:EL seems to contain the relevant guidance. 4u1e 19:07, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
I will comment further at the talk page. 4u1e 19:13, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
