Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page NGK 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 for advertising or promotion. Since 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. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 15:04, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Shock absorber. 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 web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since 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 rather than re-adding it. Thank you. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 15:12, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Brake pad, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well potentially being penalized by search engines. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 15:14, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

W

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia for continuing to add spam links. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may place {{unblock}} on your user talk page to have the block reviewed. Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia.

Unblock

{{unblock|I did not read the spam guidelines and did not know that even relevant external links were unwelcome if they tend to redirect people away from Wikipedia. It will not happen again.}} — Preceding unsigned comment added by Irocgt (talk • contribs)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Please read up on our policies and guidelines, and I suggest that you discuss further linkadditions (and gaining consensus with other editors) before starting to add again. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 15:52, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
