Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie Talk 05:12, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
Hello, I don't understand what are you talking about actually! I'm cruise addict, so I just edit some info about cruises. Usually I search information on several top cruising resources, among them cruisecritic, cruisehive, cruisefever, cruisebe, maritimematters, cruiseindustrynews, travelweekly, etc. If you know better cruising sources - just let me know! But please don't call me a spammer! Because I don't have nothing with cruiseindustrynews. And clarify your rules. When I added some info - you asked me to provide link (cite). When I provided links - you call me a spammer. Crazy world! Captainsparrow (talk) 17:28, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
- Our mission is to provide the public with knowledge of enduring importance - Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a newspaper or a blog or a place to promote things. Please avoid commercial sites and for content please focus on things of enduring, not ephemeral, importance. Please read WP:NOT which describes the mission of WP and clarifies what we do here, and what we don't do here. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 18:47, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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.

Are you crazy? It's impermissible. I just tried to expand information on Wiki. Info about cruise industry is awful now. I don't care about any websites and their affiliates. I wrote about this issue in previous message. Could you find another websites with appropriate info about this industry?! If you don't care about content on Wiki, it's OK. Just answer and I'll delete all my contributions! Your behavior is absolutely unacceptable. And your "messages" don't have anything common with Wiki policy!
~~ Will you answer me?! ~~

[edit]Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 10:53, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
