Apart from the lack of sourcing for content that you add, there are at least three other problems with your editing.
- You are edit-warring on the article ABI Research, which is to say that you have been repeatedly reverting an article to your preferred version in the face of edits that you disagree with. That is not the way to settle disagreements: if you believe there are good reasons for your edits, then please explain why on the article's talk page, and be prepared to discuss the issues involved, with a view to trying to reach agreement. Edit-warring is considered disruptive, and can lead to being blocked from editing.
- Your editing history suggests that you may have a close personal connection with ABI Research (such as perhaps being an employee of the company). If so, you are likely to find it difficult to edit from a neutral point of view, and consequently Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines discourage you from editing the article. Better, if you think content needs to be changed, is to suggest the changes you want on the article's talk page, so that one or more uninvolved third-party editors can assess your suggestions, and implement them if they think you are right. If you do that, you may like to post {{helpme}} on the talk page, followed by an explanation of what edit you want, and why. That will call attention to your request to editors who check for such help requests: otherwise, there is a risk that your message may go unseen for months.
- Some of the edits from this IP address have looked as though they are there to call attention to ABI Research; for example there have been a number of occasions when links to the article ABI Research, accompanied by references to pages on the company's web site have been added to articles where those links are of little relevance. If this is done in order to advertise or promote the company, or to attract people to its web site, then those edits are contrary to the policy that Wikipedia is not to be used for promotional purposes, and continuing to do so is likely to lead to being blocked from editing.
