Welcome

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Kruskal's algorithm, seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising. For more information on this, see:

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write {{helpme}} below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia:

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Recently I placed implementation of several data structures and algorithms in my blog and decided to add links to Wikipedia, because implementation are good. Some linkes were kept, but some of them (Kruskal's algorithm, Dijkstra's algorithm and Prim's algorithm) were considered as "advertising". There is no sign or link in my blog of any company or product or something. My question is why it happened?

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you have been adding your signature to some of your edits to articles. This is a common mistake to make and has probably already been corrected. There is no need to sign your edits to article content, as the article's edit history serves the function of attributing contributions, so you only need to use your signature to make discussions more readable, such as on article talk pages or project pages such as the Village Pump. If you would like further information about distinguishing types of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thank you for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you.

Hello! Thank you for your answer. Yes, I added signatures, but these signatures was not about WHO added the links, but WHOSE implementations these are (and other links also has such signatures). And second. How should I mark that these links are not "advertising" or something like this (regarding to Kruskal's algorithm, Dijkstra's algorithm and Prim's algorithm)

There seems to be different kind of problems:
  1. Please don't add your signature (~~~~) to articles. Add them at discussion/talk pages like here: sign your comments with these four tildes!
  2. Please read WP:EL and WP:ELNO: don't "spam" Wikipedia with your blog link since it is no improvements and it is indeed advertising (in this case you advertising your blog) and it doesn't improve the related wikipedia articles you spammed.
  3. You have a Conflict of interest - read our simplified version of the linked policy at WP:PSCOI and understand that you should add your blog link.

Hello IgushevEdward. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • 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.
