Hello, AndGG97. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to sources you may be affiliated with.
Editing in this way is a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be a form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM); the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.
If you wish to continue contributing, please first consider citing other reliable secondary sources such as review articles that were written by other researchers in your field and that are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite sources for which you may have a conflict of interest, please start a new section on the article's talk page and add {{Edit COI}} to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.

- Hi SmartSE,
- Apologies for the confusion. I am currently a Master's student at Madrid's Complutense University. For a class project, we were asked to edit wikipedia with new information based on a paper that was assigned to us at the beggining of the semester. I have no affiliation to the source I added, and was unaware that adding the same citation could appear promotional. I understand the concern and will avoid adding further edits from this source. However, is there a way that my edits can be added back? I'm happy to follow any community guidelines, or do necesary edits.
- Best,

AfC notification: User:AndGG97/sandbox has a new comment

- Hi Theroadislong, thank you for your comment! I'm looking for additional sources to enrich my edits.
- I had a question, what did you mean with your comment "if Epigenetic clock is the title, it should be on the first line"?
- Do you mean, I should just write Epigenetic clock, immediately followed by my text?
- Also, in my sandbox, can I add edits for multiple wikipedia pages? or must they be done one by one?
- Thank you for your support. I'm still learning but want to make sure I'm abiding to wikipedia's guidelines.
