[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Small business 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 as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because 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 constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 14:17, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to White-label product. 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. 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 article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you.
Please also note that the text you added is mostly promotional and does not belong in an encyclopedia. bonadea contributions talk 14:19, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm Zad68. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Prevalence of circumcision, because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

I am concerned that you don't understand Wikipedia's sourcing requirements, please see WP:RS, and WP:MEDRS for sourcing for biomedical information. What would be worse is if you were actually trying to use Wikipedia to drive traffic to commercial website from the links embedded in the references you are adding. If you're doing that, please stop, it's really not allowed. Zad68

[edit] You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link. 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.
See also WP:COI which appears to apply. --Ronz (talk) 16:21, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Courtesy notice
[edit]I had already reported you at WP:AIV before you restored your links once again. As far as I can see from your editing to date, you're here only to promote garethgoddard.com and it's clients, in direct violation of WP:COI, WP:REFSPAM, and WP:PROMO. --Ronz (talk) 19:33, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for discontinuing the spamming. Not blocked at this time, no new edits in 4 hours. Jeepday (talk) 23:08, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
