Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Tooth whitening. 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. The Mirror Cracked (talk) 07:18, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Health care in Australia. 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.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at Clear aligners. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. bonadea contributions talk 07:23, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
References in Wikipedia articles are there to support and verify the content. Nothing on the web page https://smilefit.com.au/how-does-an-invisalign-work supports any part of the text "$140 million in venture capital was raised from 1997 to 2000, and another $130 million in an initial public offering in 2001. As of 2014, according to Align Technology, 2.4 million people around the world had been treated with Invisalign", and so it did nothing to help the reader. In addition, the link violates Wikipedia's external links policy. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 07:28, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
