"cross-wiki promotion"?

Hi Graham87, you have reverted some edits with the comment "cross-wiki promotion". Can you tell me why? I think the Eckart Witzigmann Preis is a relevant avard. Why promotion? It is a prestigious award, not a product. Best regards, --Schotterebene (Diskussion) 09:30, 16. Dez. 2017 (CET)

@Schotterebene: I think it's suspicious when a single-purpose IP editor goes through several wikis (in this case the Germanand English Wikipedias) to add an award that doesn't even have its own Wikipedia article (not even here) to a large number of articles. Anything can be promoted, not just a product. Graham87 (Diskussion) 10:02, 16. Dez. 2017 (CET)

The question is: is the award relevant or not? I think it is relevant. --Schotterebene (Diskussion) 10:32, 16. Dez. 2017 (CET)

And now the article exists: Eckart Witzigmann Preis - Best regards, --Schotterebene (Diskussion) 19:09, 16. Dez. 2017 (CET)

@Schotterebene: Thanks for that; I've undone my edits, adding a link to the new article, wikilinked it in a few other places, and created a redirect at Vorlage:Noredirect. Graham87 (Diskussion) 03:15, 17. Dez. 2017 (CET)

@Graham87: Thanks - good job! Greetings from near Munich to Perth and best regards, --Schotterebene (Diskussion) 07:30, 17. Dez. 2017 (CET)

Edits by User Dnilgisnhurb

Hallo Graham87,

die von Dir zurückgesetzten Edits sehen in der Tat wie Spam aus. Sie stammen auch wirklich von der Autorin der betroffenen Bücher selbst. Allerdings handelt es sich um den verifizierten Account einer renommierten Musikwissenschaftlerin (Siglind Bruhn), deren Werke durchaus einen Mehrwert bieten. Sie hat auch bereits auf die Hinweise auf ihrer Diskussionsseite reagiert (mit Taten, nicht mit Worten). Daher würde ich die betroffenen Literaturangaben gerne in den Artikeln lassen. Viele Grüße, --Rodomonte (Diskussion) 08:49, 23. Aug. 2021 (CEST)

Vorlage:Re As it says on my user page, I don't know German but I used Google Translate to get the gist of your message. I discovered this user on the English Wikipedia and only began reverting their edits in German because I noticed that some had already been undone. Bruhn may be a renowned music theorist but her addition of her own papers to many articles still puts undue weight on her work (i.e. they are mentioned more than is warranted). I don't think her behaviour should have anything to do with this. This is not my home wiki though so I'll stop the reversions since you've objected. Graham87 (Diskussion) 09:24, 23. Aug. 2021 (CEST)

@Rodomonte: Trying ping again. I've been thanked using the thank feature for these removals, so I'm obviously not the only one who thinks they are a good idea. Do you happen to know much about classical music? Graham87 (Diskussion) 12:10, 23. Aug. 2021 (CEST)
