Welcome![edit]

Hello, Brian.balderrama, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page ʻIolani Palace, seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising. For more information on this, please see:

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can click here to ask a question on your talk page. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia:

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! Aoi (青い) (talk) 17:51, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be more specific, your only edits are to add links to a site you appear to be directly connected with into articles. At least one of these additions, at Kawaiahao Church, contain wrong information. Aside from this conflict of interest, the links do not meet the requirements of WP:Reliable sources. Please take a few minutes to read the policy on reliable sources before adding more links. Thank you. Aoi (青い) (talk) 17:58, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

July 2019[edit]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Nuʻuanu Pali. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Curious as to why this gets flagged but a Reference in the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pele%27s_hair citation #6 does not get flagged for similar tags, additions of links?? Brian.balderrama (talk)

I flagged your edits because the edits consisted solely of the addition of links that went against policy. If you didn't know that was against policy, that's fine, just please refrain from doing it in the future and you'll be fine. I removed the other link you referenced.
