Hello,. You may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest including WP:NOPAY. All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People with a close connection to a subject need to be aware of Wikipedia's policies;


 * Conflict of interest
 * Paid advocacy, public relations, and marketing
 * Advertising and conflicts of interest (External Linking)
 * Editors who have a conflict of interest
 * Accounts used for promotion
 * Law Of Unintended Consequences
 * Wikipedia is not a vehicle for promotion

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view. You may also wish to avoid giving the impression that your account is to be used for promotional purposes. Regardless, doing so does not exempt you from compliance with Wikipedias policies. Hello, I'm Hu12. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.--Hu12 (talk) 18:29, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

I read these policies before I posted my infographic and also again after your message - Please can you point me at the rule I am breaking and I will amend the infographic appropriately - I have many of these and I believe they are of great benefit and use to wikipedia in that they "show" with much fewer words than articles.

Look forward to hearing from you so we can rectify this problem and I look forward to adding many more.

As a note I have over 20 years of investment and trading experience - Simply willing to share info.

 * It seems clear that:
 * You are associated with the site forexuseful.com and/or the corresponding infographic you keep adding to articles
 * You are unfamiliar with Wikipedia policies and guidelines, specifically WP:COI (don't add links to things you're associated with), WP:NOTPROMOTION (don't use Wikipedia as a publicity medium), and WP:ELNO (links to be avoided, specifically your own). WP:NOTHOWTO (Wikipedia is not a "how-to" guide) also seems relevant in this case.
 * Please read those things, and refrain from adding any links to sites with which you are associated, or editing articles where you have a conflict of interest. Instead, propose your changes on the article talk page. If you continue spamming Wikipedia articles, I will have no choice but to block this account. ~Amatulić (talk) 20:36, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
