Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to NFL. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Simishag (talk) 22:29, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to NASCAR. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. Simishag (talk) 22:29, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Muhammad Ali, you will be blocked from editing. Simishag (talk) 22:29, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Sports Marketing Group, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 01:31, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Nye Lavalle, without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered vandalism. Further edits of this type may result in you being blocked from editing Wikipedia. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 23:40, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

• And in reference to that AfD, Wikipedia is not a stage for sexism. Addressing fellow editors as "Gentlemen" is ridiculous. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 19:36, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

May 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Steve Wilstein, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 19:30, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
