Citing your own work
Hi Mike, I'll start by saying how much I enjoyed reading the first part of your book "Oil Strike North Sea" via Google Books. However, it's considered a form of spamming here to add citations to your own work, particularly if you're not adding citations to anyone else's work - see WP:SELFCITE. I would suggest that you undo your additions and instead propose them on the various article talk pages for others to judge. I would expect that other editors would be happy to see them added, there are no guarantees, but that's the best approach. Mikenorton (talk) 17:40, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
