Hello Workplayhard. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Preloaded, you may have a conflict of interest, or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * 1) Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * 2) Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * 3) Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * 4) Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 15:54, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Further concerns
You also might want to look at Wikipedia guidelines re: which sources are acceptable, per WP:RELIABLE; primary sources are not adequate. Generally references to articles solely about a subject, as opposed to passing mention, are required to establish its notability. Incidentally, you appear to have begun editing right after this account was blocked. Please be familiar with Wikipedia guidelines re: editing as a sockpuppet, which can result in the blocking of multiple accounts. 99.0.82.226 (talk) 16:00, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The only reason was blocked was due to having a promotional username. This editor was free to choose another username that complied with the Wikipedia policy and has done so. There is no sock puppeting concern. Elizium23 (talk) 17:06, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for clarifying, Elizium23. Much obliged, though conflict of interest would still be relevant. 99.0.82.226 (talk) 19:19, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
