Sociology7834, you are invited on a Wikipedia Adventure!
 The Adventure

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Job Corps. 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. Aoidh (talk) 18:20, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

My reference to my co-authored book, The Enigmatic Academy, has been removed from the Job Corps Wikipedia web page several times. The reason I posted the link is because the book is a scholarly, not commercial, publication. It provides an in-depth case study of a Job Corps center. To my knowledge, no other such study exists. It would be of value to scholars as well as potential Job Corps enrollees to know of and have reference to this kind of research into the institution. As there is no commercial advantage to my posting this link but rather a general scholarly advantage to others to know it exists, I do not quite grasp how this is "promotional material" nor a " a soapbox|a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion". Readers of this Wikipedia page could easily obtain a copy of the book from a library at no cost to themselves. I was posting the link in the interest of a free exchange of information on a site which is otherwise itself promotional as it offers no critical perspective on Job Corps. Give this rationale, is it possible to keep the link to the book up? I do no agree with the rationale for taking it down. Please reply.
