Hello, Stakacan. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to research published by a small group of researchers.

Editing in this way is a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest in Wikipedia – please see WP:SELFCITE and WP:MEDCOI. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM); the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

Scientific articles should prefer secondary sources to ensure that the information added is trusted by the scientific community.

The editing community highly values expert contributors, so I do hope you will consider contributing more broadly. If you wish to contribute, please first consider citing review articles written by other researchers in your field and which are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite your own research, please start a new section on the article's talk page and add request edit to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.

 * I added those because I saw them as valuable cotributions to the topics at hand. Most of those pages are poorly written and in some cases do not even mention the large thinkers. They lack a scientific mindset. Example: Strategic Management mentions PrahalAd and Hamel on core competences, but do not even name Birger Wernerfelt, the originator of the idea.
 * Thus, I thought my contributions filled a void. as for their merits, one of them won first prize in European doctoral dissertation competition in 2002. Others are popular on SSRN.
 * I respect your policy, but I did not know about it. I will refrain from contributing. Stakacan (talk) 16:19, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I noticed you removed references to Canback not entered by me. One of those have 243 cites on ProQuest.
 * I have decided that Wikipedia is not for me. We all have different paths in life and this is one I will not pursue.
 * Good luck with your continued efforts. Stakacan (talk) 16:58, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
