Hello, I'm TheRedPenOfDoom. 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. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  01:50, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Mysore Manjunath. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  04:37, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello. This is Manirang1975. I am really surprised that the actual facts are treated as objectionable materials in Mysore Manjunath article. How can it be promotional material? All well known facts only. Not a single objectionable/false information you can point out here. I am really surprised that facts are understood as advertising material.All the points may be double checked.Thank you.


 * Did anyone actually say the content you added was false? I'm sure it's all correct information, but it's the way you're wording it that makes it sound promotional. Statements like "His exceptional musical talents", "very tender age of 8", "From child prodigy to trail blazer, captivating audiences & critics" are not the way an encyclopedia refers to a subject. Material must be added in a neutral point-of-view, what you added sounds more appropriate for an official website or fan site. Cmr08 (talk) 22:12, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Oh. Ok. I think I understood the point. Will word it accordingly and come back soon. Thank you for the information --) Hello dear TheRedPenOfDoom. check this out. Made suitable changes and posted it now--)


 * On first glance, the new version is much better than original but you still need to follow manual of style, and while you managed to cut out most of the puffery, there are still a couple of statements and descriptions that are not that appropriate for an encyclopedia. I have tried to clean the text up to fix the manual of style issues and the pov and puffery. You added a number of references but there all blind urls, it would help improve the article by converting the bare urls to inline citations so we know what the references are actually referencing. As for the external links, there blind urls also, it would be more appropriate to tell the reader what they are rather than just listing them as 1, 2, 3, etc. However, I repeat, you deserve credit for removing much of the promotional content and making the article more neutral.
