Hello, Dillydally. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to research published by a small group of researchers.

Scientific articles should mainly reference review articles to ensure that the information added is trusted by the scientific community.

Editing in this way is also a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest in Wikipedia – please see WP:SELFCITE and WP:MEDCOI. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM) and the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

Finally, please be aware that the editing community highly values expert contributors – please see WP:EXPERT. I do hope you will consider contributing more broadly. If you wish to contribute, please first consider citing review articles written by other researchers in your field and which are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite your own research, please start a new thread on the article talk page and add requestedit to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.

Hi MrOllie(talk), thank you for you comments. Yet, all that was not my intention. Sure, I know most - what I write about, yet, as I see, you removed all my inputs (maybe would be wiser to leave them and add sources you think are more appropriate, you know best).

I have always linked the sources, and all the articles I referred to were articles in peer-reviewed journals/books. I also don't think that quoting white heterosexual men from the USA or Western Europe without giving space to scientists from periphery makes sense ... but as you like.

It is a pity for an initiative like BEB to dissapear again - that you canceled - because the ownership of the electricity grid in Berlin is being changed now and it could be a good example for other initiatives in the world.

Ok, on my part, I am not discouraged and promise to continue to engage. Sorry that my writing may appear to be incorrect. I believe that wikipedia is one of the rare common goods that remains, so I want to contribute further - thank you for the instructions. No hard feelings.
