PostgreSQL
I reverted your edit to PostgreSQL, on the grounds that (1) Wavemaker is not a "Database administration front-end" for PostgreSQL, which is the section you added your content to; in fact, Wavemaker appears to have nothing specifically to do with PostgreSQL (2) Your contributions to WP seem to center on adding links and content related to Wavemaker. Of course that's not a crime, but the pattern is certainly clear. Neilc (talk) 05:29, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't object to adding a link to Wavemaker as part of a list of PostgreSQL-related tools (perhaps as a separate article), but it doesn't seem related enough to PostgreSQL to warrant a whole subsection. Neilc (talk) 22:12, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you insert a spam link, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

 * What in the world are you talking about? I am the CEO of an open source software company Wavemaker. I made an edit on the MS Access page in the section listed MS Access Alternatives. I then added alternatives sections to two similar products Lotus Notes, PowerBuilder, adding not just the WaveMaker link but also several others of open source alternatives to these products. These are old proprietary RAD platforms that people are wanting to find alternatives for, particularly open source alternatives. These products came from [] which is the top Google hit for MS Access alternatives. If it is ok to have alternatives on the MS Access, why is it spam to add similar sections for similar products? I got started on this after participating on a thread at [|Stack Overflow] - now I'm sorry I tried Ctkeene (talk) 19:06, 15 May 2010 (UTC)Ctkeene


 * The article is on MS Access, not alternatives. Wikipedia is not a directory. Consider finding ways to contribute rather than just promoting a product that you're the CEO of. Imagine what this encyclopedia would be like if others' contributions were so limited. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 01:40, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
