Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! You recently added an external link to YouTube in an article. It has been removed because the link pointed to a non-encyclopedic source.

Per WP:COPYRIGHT:
External sites can possibly violate copyright. Linking to copyrighted works is usually not a problem, as long as you have made a reasonable effort to determine that the page in question is not violating someone else's copyright. If it is, please do not link to the page. Knowingly and intentionally directing others to a site that violates copyright has been considered a form of copyright infringement in the United States (Intellectual Reserve v. Utah Lighthouse Ministry). Also, linking to a page that illegally distributes someone else's work sheds a bad light on Wikipedia and its editors. If the site in question is making fair use of the material, linking is fine.

Please refer to Wikipedia's policy on external links for more information.

First thing, find some independent sources about the company. Has it been covered in newspapers or magazines? Reviewed by reliable websites? Then write the article based on that information, taking care not to sound like you're promoting the company. See WP:CORP for the notability guidelines for companies. Sources have to take precedence, per our policy of Wikipedia:Attribution. NickelShoe (Talk) 19:37, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. You may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did to 1980 Pennsylvania Lottery scandal, makes it harder to read. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Your edits are adding information which is easily assumed and not adhering to WP:MOS. --SamMichaels (talk) 20:50, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to use disruptive or hard to read formatting, as you did to 1980 Pennsylvania Lottery scandal, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Use the talk page to discuss your edits. The next time an administrator will be involved. --SamMichaels (talk) 20:48, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
