Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Advertising Educational Foundation article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material.

August addition[edit]

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles, as you did with Advertising Educational Foundation. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. — ERcheck (talk) 20:28, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Concerning Advertising Educational Foundation: Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links as long as the content abides by our policies and guidelines. See the Wikipedia guidelines for inclusion of companies. Also, please be aware that Wikipedia's copyright policies require stringent verifiability of release of information in order for it to be included. Thanks. — ERcheck (talk) 20:25, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Advertising Educational Foundation[edit]

Hello, AEF, and welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created, Advertising Educational Foundation, has been tagged for speedy deletion because its content is clearly written to promote a company, product, or service. This article may have been deleted by the time you see this message. Please keep in mind that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising service. Thank you. -- Merope 15:13, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue spamming, as you did in Public service advertising, you will be blocked from editing. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 02:32, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Aef medium.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Aef medium.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 02:37, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to advertising[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the external links you added to the page advertising do not comply with our guidelines for external links. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article advertising, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
and you must always:
avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

Accounts used solely for blatant self-promotion may be blocked indefinitely without further warning.

For more details, please read the Conflict of Interest guideline. Thank you. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 13:45, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Andrew Susman[edit]

Hello, AEF. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Andrew Susman".

The page will shortly be deleted.

January 2023[edit]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. [1] MrOllie (talk) 17:58, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Advertising, you may be blocked from editing. Phuzion (talk) 18:00, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at Advertising. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. MrOllie (talk) 18:03, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or self-promoting in violation of the conflict of interest and notability guidelines.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Widr (talk) 18:23, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies-aef.com is a free educational resource site and I didn't think it violated any rules by adding to relevant pages. AEF (talk) 18:27, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
