Bob: I have removed the link on the Net Promoter article to your self-published web page. I wanted you to know there are two reasons for doing this:

  1. Wikipedia policy is clear in stating the individuals should not promote or refer to their own writings
  2. Policy is also clear that the articles referenced, especially if controversial, should be widely accessible and in independent publications. This reference is really neither.

Please see WP:NPOV for reference. WP:PG also provides a really good overview of the overall policies for page editing.

I can imagine this might be a little frustrating to you (this is the second time you tried to add this reference), but the policies are here to limit linkspam and self-promotion, which would otherwise run rampant and destroy the value of Wikipedia.
