I've removed your recent addition to the eBay article. Could you please provide a cite to a reliable source that confirms both the fact that eBay has a restriction on hearing aids sales, and also that it was due to a complaint by Graham Clarke. The link you are adding to http://www.hearingaidsattrade.co.uk/ doesn't verify or explain what is being added, and looks suspiciously like a promotional link. You should also be aware that inserting links to your own commercial website to Wikipedia is strongly discouraged. Thanks. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 15:17, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi There below is my communication with ebay to the testiment of what I have written (which was removed) Also here is a link to a blog posted on 20th November at the HAAT website http://www.hearingaidsattrade.co.uk/blog/hearing-aids-trade-call-ban-sales-hearing-aids-ebay.htm   This is the reason for the link; If you look at Jamie Murray Wells, he has links to his websites for what he has done and on the same basis I would ask the same treatment

eBay & Sources
If what you say above is true then your best course of action would be to get someone in the news media interested. Once a reliable source publishes the story it may then be included in Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not, however, the place to 'break' the story. It does not publish things that have not already been published. Cites to your own website (which doesn't actually confirm what you've said above) would count as a primary source, which is generally not acceptable for anything that may be contentious. And something from eBay itself would carry more weight.

The difference with the Jamie Murray Wells article is that the majority of that article is sourced to secondary reliable sources. There are a few cites to his website as a primary source, and it would be better if there were none, but the article itself is about him and does not depend on his website's cites. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 16:06, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

I understand and will get more proof for you but also could you delete the masked fang account as I lost passwords and could not use. That is why I have 2 accounts
