Hi, yes, I am new to wikipedia. The first time I entered text I agree that it could have been seen as promotional. I'm learning to how write in the wikipedia style. However, I have to disagree with your decision to remove my two later edits. In the last edit you undid, I simply stated the designer and described the hospital gown. I then said it was a part of patient-centrered care. There was two sentences were I describe an item with neutral, opinion free, manner. I properly cited what I said, even using an independent news broadcast. If my two sentences are not upheld then why is Cythnia Rowley or Tam Nguyen's still allowed to be a part of the article? Tam Nguyen's citation no longer even exists. The point is this style of gown is new and different in that it is patient-centered, designed by and for patients. It is not the massed produced or disposable, impersonal styles. It's designed to make patients feel more comfortable and confident. It's individualised by a part of a broader community project where breast cancer center volunteers sew in a personal message. The idea is by making someone feel better and more comfortable psychologically you are helping them heal physically as well. It's a real thing, stocked in hospitals across several USA states.

In response to your feedback

Although the content you added to Hospital gown was sourced, the paragraph read like an advertisement. As User:RA0808 mentioned, consider visiting Wikipedia:Tone. If you have questions, contact me at my talk page.

Instead of edit warring, please join the discussion on the article talk page here. It is the norm of the community that after your edit is reverted you discuss on the talk page rather than insist on your version of the article to get consensus. Yobol (talk) 22:57, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
