Copying content to Wikipedia, and promotion
It is almost never suitable to copy content from another web site to Wikipedia, for more than one reason, the most important being copyright. When you post anything to Wikipedia you release it for anyone in the world to reuse it, either unchanged or modified in any way whatever, subject to attribution to Wikipedia. It is very rare that the owner of a web site licenses content for such very free reuse, and in those few occasions when they do so, we require proof of the fact. We don't assume that content is freely licensed on the unsubstantiated say so of just anyone who comes along and creates a Wikipedia account, for the simple reason that very often people come to Wikipedia and falsely claim to have copyright rights that in fact they don't have. Also, when content about a subject is copied from that subject's own web site, or from a web site or page associated with the subject, such as the subject's Facebook account, LinkedIn account, etc, it is almost always written in terms which are too promotional for a Wikipedia article.

I see that at Talk:Shankarrao Haribhau Ghule you wrote "This page is not unambiguously promotional, because..." and then went on to give reasons such as "He fought for rights of unorganized sector" and "His contribution need to reach people". Writing about someone because you think that he or she did good work and you think knowledge of how good he or she was should "reach people" is exactly the sort of thing that "promotional" means. Wikipedia does not permit editing for the purpose of telling the world how good you think things or people are or were, that is to say for the purpose of promoting them.
