Hello, I'm Ohnoitsjamie. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it appeared to be promotional.

Hi Jamie, thank you for your advice. This was my first time editing wikipedia pages and I felt that what I had contributed was purely informative and not promotional. I worked hard to make sure that each contribution was unique and I did a lot of research prior to adding to any article. I then referenced these to the blog posts I had personally written, all of which include related articles to add to the legitimacy of my posts. Could you please offer me guidance as to the best way to contribute as I feel I have a lot of valuable knowledge to offer to these posts.Paul Durkin is a resident mattress expert and writes for the Wedo Mattresses Blog 10:32, 11 January 2013 (UTC)Paul
