Please stop your
disruptive editing. If you continue to add
promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at
Pequot War, you may be
blocked from editing.

Dear madam/sir, I don't understand why you consider my additions/edits as promotional material. What I added were secondary sources that are directly & demonstrably related to the articles in question. What makes these secondary sources promotional, but the secondary sources that are already there not promotional? 47.188.136.166 ( talk) 19:22, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll try again. Multiple authors. 47.188.136.166 ( talk) 14:32, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
I don't mean to be difficult; I'm genuinely perplexed. I'd be grateful for some guidance. I'm an expert in this field & am trying to offer a perspective that exists in the scholarship but is absent from Wikipedia. Wikipedia now reflects only one side of a scholarly debate. How would the entry on "piracy in the Atlantic World" (which I just finished editing, before receiving your message) get updated without such updates from scholars in the field? 47.188.136.166 ( talk) 17:47, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
