Edit Summaries
Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this: The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. —  Spike Toronto  07:06, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Welcome. Please stop inserting nearly identical text into different articles. The text you are inserting is a clear advertisement for the group and adds little to the article. Thanks, Celestra (talk) 05:55, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. One or more of the external links you added in this edit to the page Starbucks do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. You may wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.  Spike Toronto  07:04, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in this edit to Starbucks. Inappropriate links include links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that serve as advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Climate Counts edits
Hi. I may have explained the problem poorly above. The majority of the addition is spent advertising the organization. This may seem reasonable since the organization is somewhat obscure and the reader wouldn't be likely to know them. But if the organization is obscure, how much does its opinion of the subject of the article add to the article? These edits are equivalent to adding "Joe Blow, a New Hampshire politician running for Mayor of Itscoldhere on a platform of Mom and Apple Pie, gave the company two stars for quality" or "Joe's Plumbing, a company dedicated to repairing frozen pipes in the greater St. Paul area, rated them 6 or 9 for speed of service." The opinion of an obscure group fails WP:WEIGHT and does not belong in the article. If you want to add to the environmental section of these articles, there are many better known organizations which have similar opinions. Or, better yet, you could find a reliable secondary source which references the various primary source data points and summarize that source for the articles.
