Category links?[edit]

Hi there. I notice that you are adding articles to this category: Category:Companies in the MSCI KLD 400 Social Index. If the article itself doesn't say anything about the company belonging to that index, then I don't think it is appropriate to tag the article into that category.

June 2024[edit]

Hello, I'm NatGertler. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. You appear to be adding links to a promotional page for a specific stock index fund on many pages. This is inappropriate.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Texas Instruments, you may be blocked from editing. You've been adding a link to the same sales page into dozens of articles. Nat Gertler (talk) 20:07, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 213.78.190.234! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Mastercard several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Mastercard, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 20:28, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please stop adding companies' own press releases as sources on their articles. See WP:RS for guidance on what constitutes a reliable source. AntiDionysius (talk) 20:29, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make personal attacks on other people, as you did at Talk:Mastercard. Comment on content, not on fellow editors. Wiiformii (talk) 21:12, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's ok. Go ahead. I'm done trying to improve Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.78.190.234 (talk) 21:19, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
