Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Facebook Platform, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. The reverted edit can be found here. Thank you. Sailsbystars (talk) 19:43, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Sailsbystars, The link you just deleted is an external link to a completely open and completely free UML design for the Facebook API software system. Let me repeat. This resource is completely free.  There is no charge for it.   There will never be a charge for it.  It is the most comprehensive detailed sofware design information available in the world for the Facebook API. TSRI Opensourceblueprints

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Vuze. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Sailsbystars (talk) 19:44, 22 December 2010 (UTC) Please do not add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to Android (operating system). If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. (ESkog)(Talk) 20:01, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

 * It is true you are not charging for a product or service, however, you are promoting use of your website with external links that are only marginally relevant to the articles at hand. Given that it is your own website, adding the link yourself violates our conflict of interest policy.  Sailsbystars (talk) 20:06, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

This is your only warning. If you insert a spam link to Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. It matters not if its "free", you are still promoting a website and or product Wuh  Wuz  Dat  20:17, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
 * What can I do now?


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  20:21, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

You have attempted to remove the record of your block appeal from your talk page. As the appeal notification states, "Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked." If you continue to attempt to remove these records, your permission to edit this page may also be revoked. --Sacolcor (talk) 18:18, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

I've flagged this user as a possible sockpuppet of Softwaresavant, who received multiple warnings about adding inappropriate external links to the same website. See User talk:Rurik for a conversation where another editor attempted to explain the conflict of use rules to them. --Sacolcor (talk) 00:10, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Dear Editors, I will not create external links to the external content. At the time Softwaresavant added links to the external content about a year ago, the principle issue appeared to be that a fee was being charged for access to the content. As no fees are being charged for access to the content, that seemed to resolve the major concern that was expressed at that time. It appears your rules have tightened since then, and now prohibit any organization adding links to its own website, or any person or entity writing about itself. I was unaware of that the level of editorial supervision had tightened. I will respect your rules; however I continue to believe the content that you are excluding to be appropriate for inclusion in a corpus of world knowledge (even though you are excluding it) for the following reasons. Application Blueprint are large ultra high fidelity software engineering models for a specific software systems. People can go beyond just reading what others have written about these systems and actually inspecting a software application as software design artifact. The Application Blueprints enable readers to gain an in depth understanding of the actual algorithms, design and architecture of each of these systems. I understand that some readers prefer to know about things at a high-level, and that that kind of content is appropriate in wikipedia. On the other hand, some people want to know everything about how software works: eg. how the system is structured, how data flows through the system, the business rules that are in it, the data sources it uses, the complexity of the methods and classes that make up the system, the class hierarchies, and the relationship between the system and other systems. This kind of information is available for free as an open source resource at the links you removed. The open source application blueprints is a completely free resource for users and developers in the open source community to understand the properties of these and improve upon these systems. But, I respect your decision, and will not attempt to make this resource available to wikipedia readers Tsriopensourceblueprints (talk) 20:08, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your commitment to stop adding external links. Wikipedia wants to be inclusive, but self-promotion is not allowed, regardless of whether the linked content is useful or free.
 * Are you, in fact, the same user as Softwaresavant? If so, you should be aware that having multiple accounts is not allowed except in specific cases (which I do not believe apply here), and can result in all of your accounts being banned.  See WP:SOCK for details.  If you have multiple accounts, you should disclose them in accordance with the procedure at WP:SOCK.  I would then suggest discontinuing use of this account, editing only as Softwaresavant, and avoiding any edit that appears to promote your Application Blueprints.  I also suggest remembering to fill in an edit summary with every edit you make.  If you contribute useful, non-self-promotional content, your efforts will be appreciated.  --Sacolcor (talk) 20:41, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

I would like to remove my associatiation with the TSRIOpenSourceBlueprints as well as the Softwaresavant identify, and delete both identities. This identity and the prior identity are tainted by this mistake and the prior mistake. If I have contributions to make to wikipeida in the future, I prefer to make them under my own identify rather than under a pseudoidentity that has been disparaged by a swarm of wiki editors. I renew my request that this identify and the other identity be discontinued, so that if I choose to contribute in the future I can do so under my own identity. I was unaware prior to making the latest round of edits how tightly controlled wikipedia had become. I was also unaware about the prohibition on multiple identifies. Now that I understand more about your culture, please honor my request for these tainted identifies to be discontinued, and let them be replaced them by an identify that can author without being tainted by these prior mistakes.

 * While users in good standing are generally allowed to make a clean start (see WP:CLEANSTART), users who have been blocked are not usually permitted to simply cut ties to their old identities; if they could, it would be too easy to evade scrutiny (see WP:SCRUTINY). You had multiple editors warn you that your edits were inappropriate; that should have been a signal for you to stop and make sure that you understood the policies before making more such edits.  You may have to simply accept that you will be viewed with suspicion for a while.  If you make genuinely useful contributions, your reputation can be rebuilt.


 * With that said, I (barely) had not yet submitted the form that would have initiated a formal investigation into your multiple accounts, and your Softwaresavant account is not yet under any official penalty. If you place the   tag on this talk page, stop using this account, and use the Softwaresavant account only for constructive contributions, I won't bother submitting the paperwork, and you should be able to continue editing as Softwaresavant.  You can even clear the warnings from that account's talk page, so that your past issues will not be immediately obvious.  However, if you give someone reason to delve into your conduct, they will very quickly turn up this page, so I would be very careful.  If you have any doubt about an edit you would like to make, first ask whether it's appropriate on the article's talk page.  --Sacolcor (talk) 01:27, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

As a platform member of the OMG TSRI's contributions include principal authorship of the OMG Abstract Syntax Tree Metamodeling (ASTM) specification (which is the basis for automated derivation of high fidelity language-neutral abstract software syntactical, semantic and design models), contributor to the OMG Software Metrics Metamodel (SMM) (which is the basis for the high-level metrics derived for software) and Knowledge Discovery Metamodels (KDM) (which is the basis for language neutral capture of software behavioral, structural and conceptual models capture). TSRI is a principal author of the OMG Software Pattern Recognition Metamodel (SPRM), an emerging metamodeling standard that will be used to define and support sharing of anti-pattern templates for detection of software weaknesses to facilitate the remediation of flaws and weaknesses in software, which limit the utility and impair the functionality of software. TSRI's Open Source Application Blueprints are exemplars of the use of automated techniques to derive syntactical (ASTM) and semantic models (KDM+SMM). These models serve as a working set of exemplars that illustrate TSRI progress as an OMG Platform member and member of the ADMTF towards practical implementations of ADMTF specifications to the OMG community. As a community service, TSRI also works with receptive open source organizations to provide access without charge to the detailed metamodels of the open source software systems promoted by these open source organizations. While readers can find social, political, cultural and historical information about certain software systems in Wikipedia, Wikipedia should not be regarded as a resource for access to certain kinds of knowledge about information systems. Specifically wikipedia is not a resource for information about the detailed syntactical, semantic, software design and system architecture properties of software systems. Readers interested in detailed software engineering models and detailed metamodels for software systems should look for them elsewhere. Philip H. Newcomb, CEO, Software Revolution, Inc.
