Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages. 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.

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. 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. --Ronz (talk) 18:28, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for providing the guideline links. I have reviewed my edits and the links you provided and am still unclear as to why my content additions are being considered promotional material rather than objective information about a product. Would you please share a little more about what is making my contribution seem promotional rather than objective? I would really like to address it and ensure I contribute correctly here and in the future. I really appreciate your time and your help. Thank you very much. --SAPryor (talk) 19:40, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

In general, a person or organization added to a list, as on List of PDF software, should have a pre-existing article to establish notability. If you wish to create such an article, please confirm that your subject is notable according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. DMacks (talk) 16:44, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for the clarification. I will create an article before adding these items back to the table. I appreciate your help. --SAPryor (talk) 18:21, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
