We appreciate your contributions to the Xlibris article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. For this reason your edits have been reverted or removed. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the information in your own words. If you do, please remember to cite your source(s). For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Thanks. Natalie 20:41, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

While this may be acceptable use of copyrighted information, it still violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. The advertisement tone is completely unacceptable on Wikipedia. Natalie 21:19, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Having done a bit more research, I'm afraid this is still a copyright violation, since no one at Wikipedia has any proof that you are who you say you are. Copyright problems states that you need to do one of the following: "Make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL at the site of the original publication; or send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en at wikimedia dot org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation." Thank you. Natalie 21:25, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

There are a variety of problems with the addition you made. Mainly, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a publisher of essays, opinion pieces, original research, etc. The point of Wikipedia is not to promote a specific company or improve a company's reputation. Both additions you made to the article, aside from any copyright issue or lack thereof, have problems because of their tone and what they say. The second edit is basically an essay on your opinion about this company, which isn't appropriate on Wikipedia. You may want to read The five pillars of Wikipedia, which is a very basic overview of the purpose of Wikipedia. Also, Wikipedia's policy on original research and verifiability and What Wikipedia is not are important things to read. You are more than welcome to contribute to the article, but your additions have to come from other reliable sources. I hope this all makes sense, but if not, drop me a line on my talk page.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Leuko 02:32, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
