IDsec

Hi there! I was just wondering if you were going to finish filling in the infobox on your IDsec page, the pictures and version numbers have been left blank or XXXX.. Plus you might want to copy edit the text if you just copy pasted from the sourceforge page... Let me know if you want me to have a bash at it, HAVE FUN and thanks for adding the page :> Ultima 18:26, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

COI & spam warning

The conflict of interest (COI) policy linked above is vital to maintaining an encyclopedia that doesn't end up just replicating the work of DMOZ et al, focusing instead on prose. Your recent edits seem to all be adding links to a single site, which obviously raises some questions. Rather than using your account for nothing more than adding those links, please consider suggesting them on the talk pages of target articles rather than directly adding it. Whether you're their author or simply a fan, you do seem to be in breach of the anti-promotion spirit of the COI policy. MrZaius^talk 13:49, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Per your last comment, please note that I was walking on eggshells above here for a reason - It is perfectly clear that your contributions include a number of valuable items. Also note that I and many other editors regularly deal with potential conflicts of interest in articles that we work upon. While it may not be right to continue to use your account primarily for promotion of the aforementioned wiki/blog, I certainly did not mean to discourage you from future constructive edits. Happy editing, MrZaius^talk 16:34, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Edits to the git page

Hello. My git page edits were to remove excessive or inappropriate external links, in accordance with wikipedia policy on external links:

Links in the "External links" section should be kept to a minimum. It is not Wikipedia's purpose to include a comprehensive list of external links related to each topic.

I understand that you are upset that I deleted your favourite external git link. You should be aware that it is Wikipedia policy that you should avoid linking to a site that you own, maintain, or represent. Bluebusy (talk) 16:33, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
