Information icon Hello, AyazShah2. 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 @AntiDionysius, hope you're well. I read the policies and I wanted to contribute. Link that I added is useful and relevant. The referred page has player's matches in which he scored goals. I think it is useful for the readers who wants to know about player. AyazShah2 (talk) 20:11, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are very few circumstances in which the addition of external links is allowed. This isn't one of them.
Are you affiliated with the website that you linked to? AntiDionysius (talk) 20:14, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No I am not. All I like is their details of well performed matches. I am football lover and I couldn't find any website that displays player's notable matches. That's why I thought it is better to have an external link that might be useful for wikipedia readers. AyazShah2 (talk) 20:18, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Well, I'm afraid it's not suitable for inclusion; if people want to know about notable matches, they can google it. AntiDionysius (talk) 20:20, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, if it is not suitable for the inclusion then I completely understand and respect your opinion. But honestly there are no such websites that displays notable or well performed matches. AyazShah2 (talk) 20:23, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also I added section id to avoid misleading, so if user is interested to check the detail, the link will redirect to section instead of player profile. AyazShah2 (talk) 20:20, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
