This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Titoxd(?!?) 02:28, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. I left those message in your talk page because it is against Wikipedia policy to add links to external websites, when the intent is just to advertise. The applicable policy is section 1.4.3, "Advertising" of What Wikipedia is not, which states that "External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if (emphasis mine) they can serve to identify major corporations associated with a topic". Edits such as these are typically removed on sight by editors, as they imply that Wikipedia is somehow endorsing a product it in fact isn't. Several edits of this kind (advertisements to FoxFire Technologies) were made by anonymous editors just before you started adding them, and all of those editors were warned, so we proceeded to warn you for doing the same thing. Aside of that, there aren't any more complaints, and I hope you can contribute to Wikipedia in other ways from now on. In order to contact me or any other editor, click on his or her username and then click "Discussion" at the top of the page. Titoxd(?!?) 03:39, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As the person who reverted not only some of your links, but also the text you added to Tropical cyclone describing the hurricane prevention technique, I feel I should explain why we did that too. It's against another of the rules mentioned under Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not, and explained at length at Wikipedia:No original research. See, we understand that you have this groundbreaking new idea that could save thousands of lives, and that you feel you must get the word out. I would feel the same way if it were my idea. However, Wikipedia is not the place to do it. Wikipedia is only going to mention your idea after it has been proven to work and becomes a standard practice. Similarly, if we were writing this encyclopedia in the 1920s, we would have prevented Alfred Wegener from inserting mentions of his new, unproven continental drift theory in geology articles, even though (as we now know) the theory was correct.
I also want to point out that when someone reverts your changes, and you think they were wrong to do that, the thing to do is not put your changes right back in just as they were. That's an edit war, and will cause people to assume you are a vandal or troll. Instead, talk about it on the article's discussion page.
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphaxτεχ 04:04, 28 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
