Information icon 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. [1] MrOllie (talk) 11:26, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. 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.

But I don't understand why the expansions of definitions based on research is considered a spam activity. The resourced cited are based on surveys, proxy statements, and research. Skosz (talk) 11:59, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Self published materials, including consultant authored content, are not considered to be reliable sources on Wikipedia. Systematically placing links to your consultancy website across Wikipedia is considered to be link spamming here. MrOllie (talk) 12:04, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
