Wikipedia is not a promotional medium
Hello, I'm Beyond My Ken. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Sarah Grimke because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Sarah Moore GrimkÃ© has been reverted. Your edit here to Sarah Moore GrimkÃ© was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7miBdMG0VZE&list=UUWCm76rf7xRG1rh8EfdpK3w) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 22:04, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Self-promotion
I see you erased my previous warning, but that does not make the problem go away. Please do not make any more edits promoting your book.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Sarah Grimke. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. BMK (talk) 19:12, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
 * My error, I see that I put the initial warning on your user page by mistake. Nevertheless, do not use Wikipedia to promote your work. BMK (talk) 19:14, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
