Do not attack other editors for removing spam links as you did at [[User talk:NeilN]]. Any link that opens to JAPAN HOTELS - GUARANTEED LOWEST RATES will be removed, regardless of its additional content. Links should be to unique sites that provide encyclopedic content that is not designed to lead the reader to a purchase. Your removal of the hostel link was proper, and the link to the Miyama Tourist Association, while not providing much unique content, is at least less obviously promotionally oriented.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Tokyo do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.Template:Do not delete NeilN talk to me 01:10, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Do not attack other editors for removing spam links as you did at User talk:NeilN. Any link that opens to JAPAN HOTELS - GUARANTEED LOWEST RATES will be removed, regardless of its additional content. Links should be to unique sites that provide encyclopedic content that is not designed to lead the reader to a purchase. Your removal of the hostel link was proper, and the link to the Miyama Tourist Association, while not providing much unique content, is at least less obviously promotionally oriented.
