User talk:A Mr John Smith

Hello, I'm Srich32977. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Fractional reserve banking because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. The fact that the link is tied to the book (and the Amazon link) makes it unacceptable. The contents of the book might be acceptable if it is WP:RS. – S. Rich (talk) 14:31, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi Srich. Thanks for your comment, I see your point. My contribution was going to promote ideas but not the book - the link refers to a relevant article with good statistics linked to the Fed's figures and reasoning which might be really helpful for wikireaders while the amazon link is a side thing. If you have a chance and could incorporate the graphs/narrative directly in the wiki article to avoid the ad appearance - it would be brilliant.
Welcome
