Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Event management. 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. Kuru  (talk)  02:17, 26 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks @Kuru. Can you detail what exactly was wrong with the cite to a recommended external link, please? Is there something that needs to be corrected, or not allowed at all?
 * In comparison, can you confirm that this link is also inappropriate please? - HTTP cookie
 * Thanks. 10MaverickCarrot10 (talk) 09:17, 26 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Please do not add any further links to company content marketing blogs, sales pitches, or links you have a conflict of interest with, thanks. If you're volunteering to help remove other spam, then that's great. This project is made up of volunteers who donate time to ensuring the mission of the encyclopedia, and your dedication to removing promotional external links would be valued.

 * Hi @Kuru, can you actually answer the questions provided to you please?
 * Can you detail what exactly was wrong with the cite to a recommended external link, please? Is there something that needs to be corrected, or not allowed at all?
 * In comparison, can you confirm that this link is also inappropriate please? - HTTP cookie
 * If the comparison link is allowed, then I don't see what the difference is.
 * Thanks. 10MaverickCarrot10 (talk) 11:59, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I did. If you add another promotional link to your site, you will be blocked. I will not play the WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS game with you. Kuru   (talk)  12:03, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks @Kuru. I'm just looking for a detailed explanation to rectify the link.
 * This is my first Wikipedia contribution, and I'm not trying to add a promotional link. The link if you bothered to read all the information is a long form piece of content all about event registration. I thought as there wasn't a cite link regarding 'event registration', it would be useful for other users to also read this informative long form blog post if they were interested further in the details of event registrations.
 * This is nothing new and something that others have also done in the past. Just like this blog post here, which is quite poor - https://www.inlife.co.uk/why-are-cookies-called-cookies/
 * Yet, this is currently being linked from here - HTTP cookie How do we recommend this link is also deleted?
 * This is not a game, just be a bit more understanding that others are trying to learn and contribute in a meaningful way, that is also 'fair' to everyone, without others gaining advantage by gaming the site.
 * Thanks. 10MaverickCarrot10 (talk) 13:10, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
