I updated the wikipedia page on digital natives to share the results of an article published in a highly respected academic journal. Someone deleted that, and I got the message that it is for promotional purposes.
I wonder why updating a scientific topic based on a scientific article should be considered promotion? If you keep showing outdated science in WikipediA and remove recent developments only because you say it is promotion, it is not a good practice. It is like you are silencing science and how it is helping people understand a scientific phenomenon better.
