User talk:Metalbulletinresearch

Welcome
Hello, Metalbulletinresearch, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and have been reverted. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

There is a page about the verifiability policy that explains the policy in greater detail, and another that offers tips on the proper ways of citing sources. If you are stuck and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome! -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 10:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi - The content that I have uploaded is from a reputable research source relied on by many of the key players in the stainless steel industry for valuable market information, pricing and production data.

Although the chart which was uploaded has been previously published in the Quarterly Global Chrome Review - this is a high value publication which cannot be put online and made publicly accessible. The content however is of value and direct relevance to other content currently featured on the page.

Please advise as to what the best route to take is in order to feature some valuable content from our reputable research. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Metalbulletinresearch (talk • contribs)


 * Cite the source. See WP:CITE.  Since your comments suggest that you copied something from somewhere else, also see WP:COPYVIO.  Separately, remember to put new comments under old comments on talk pages and always sign your comments with ~ . -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 11:35, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Additionally, you say "our reputable research". You cannot post your own research on Wikipedia unless you follow very strict guidelines.  Please read WP:OR for details.  Lastly, if your username represents the name of a group, journal, or other entity, you will need to change your username.  See our username policy.  I know I'm throwing a lot of policies at you, but you must understand that we need to ensure that all contributions are verified and not skewed by a particular point of view.  I'm here to help guide you if you need assistance.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 11:47, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Because your account was used for promotion of a company, group, product or organization with a username that promotes or implies affiliation with the aforementioned. Wikipedia does not allow any form of spam or other promotion of people, products, companies or other groups (even non-commercial or charitable ones). Using Wikipedia for such purposes will result in the blocking of the account involved. Please read FAQ/Organization and Conflict of interest for our policies about this.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

In addition, user accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing. Your username should reflect this. Usernames that appear to be promotional (such as those that make reference to a company or product) violate our username policy and are typically blocked to enforce that policy.


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make useful contributions about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text below this message box.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Tell us what new username you want to use. Please make sure that your new username does not violate our username policy and check that it has not already been taken (click here to search).
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If instead you believe that you have been blocked by mistake (i.e., you have not in fact been using Wikipedia for promotional purposes), please write below this message box and replace the text "Your reason here" with the reason why. See also Appealing a block for more information. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  18:48, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
