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, as you did to Battle of Seven Pines. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. ''Based on your recent contributions, it's fair to say that you're an enthusiast for Paul Taylor's new biography on Orlando Metcalf Poe. Whatever your motive, and I assume good faith that you merely wish to make the community aware of the new scholarship, such a repetitive application of sources without specific linkages by citation to article appears to many to be advertising the new work. IMHO, If a supporter of recent scholarship wished to build any article (with specific references or additional sourced detail from the new work) to improve the page, established editors would feel less need to defend pages against methodical application of a single source.
