Spam

[edit]

Addition of external links to dozens of articles although remotely relevant is considered spamming. Please see the external linking policy. The Titus index in my opinion does not add any value to the articles. Parthi talk/contribs 23:48, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blanket linking from dozens of articles will dilute any value of these external pages. If you think the articles lack some information, then the proper tack is to add the information to these articles themselves. - Parthi talk/contribs 00:31, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. — Gareth Hughes 15:10, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The policies here are WP:EL, Wikipedia:Spam and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. Addition of the same external link to a large number of pages is considered to be an indication of a conflict of interest, that however relevant the site might be, the user is using Wikipedia to publicise that site. Using Wikipedia to publicise a site is considered to be spamming. Whereas the addition of one or two relevant links to a site from different articles is acceptible, when it becomes clear that the number of links is for the purpose of increasing traffic to that site. I suggest you limit the number of links to those articles immediately relevant — e.g. I bet you site has nothing useful to say on Sogdian language, so don't link from that article, to do so would be misleading. — Gareth Hughes 15:24, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article Pokotia Monolith has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

only a single mention in a publication of questionable reliability and completely out of its scope of its claimed area of competence

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 12:40, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
