Hello, I’m Agent VII. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Call of Duty: Black Ops have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a “soapbox” are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Agent 007 (talk) 19:04, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
