Hello, I'm SamStrongTalks. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to 3D printing processes 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.   SamStrongTalks (talk) 13:26, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to 3D printing. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion.   SamStrongTalks (talk) 13:26, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Hallo I disagree here, I simply added information on terminology which is currently used incorrectly, and a reference to a newly published book. This up to date information and not soap boxing. AdditiveAnton (talk) 13:47, 23 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Are you one of the authors of that book? Seeing as there is a similar name going on. "Anton Du Plessis" being one of the authors of that book. SamStrongTalks (talk) 14:03, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Yes I am the editor of the book, so this means I am not allowed to use my knowledge to help wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by AdditiveAnton (talk • contribs)


 * That isn't what I was saying, but you understand how adding your new book multiple different places can appear to be promotional? I would recommend using the talk page of the articles in question to propose changes and let other editors who don't have a conflict of interest make the edits if they are appropriate.

I understand but also just check the changes I made, I corrected terminology and added a reference to a legitimate text book.
