Welcome
Hello LizzieTruth, welcome to Wikipedia. I reverted your edit to
ONPASSIVE
for a few reasons:
- We generally do not allow external links to be placed in the main text of articles. A small number of links to relevant external websites are generally permitted at the bottom of the page in a separate "external links" section; you can see our guideline on external linksfor more information.
- Your edit also gave the impression that your edit was intended to drive traffic to an external website offering a paid service, rather than to contribute encyclopedic information. Wikipedia does not permit advertising.
- Wikipedia is meant to be a source of information with a righting great wrongs, are generally not compatible with Wikipedia's purpose. You can click on the links here for more general information on these topics.
A different version of the information you added had already been in the article for a while, but an editor with a
primary source) and presented neutrally, otherwise I or another editor may edit your addition or remove it completely. Thanks. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:13, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

- Hi Ivanvector
- Thank you for your comments, instruction and clarification. As you can see I’m a complete newbie to editing on Wikipedia.
- Please let me assure you that my intention was not to drive traffic to a site offering a paid service and presume you are alluding to the para mentioning some case files being available for free to the general public with fees attached for others. Having re-read this I completely understand your standpoint. The link provided offered the reader an opportunity to access free documents only but as my edit mentioned the availability of documents for a fee, money changing hands was indeed implied.
- Once again thanks for your patience and also for reverting to a previous version of the webpage which presents the facts in a clear manner.
- Should I consider editing any pages in future I’ll refer to your guidance. In the meantime, if I notice the removal of paras relating to the SEC would it be OK to drop you a quick line?
- Regards
