Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Response to your message on my talk page
Please read Wikipedia policy on external links, especially this section on advertising. If you think the commercial links you are adding do not violate this policy, first discuss this on the talk pages of the article pages.

In response to the questions you raised, instead of sending me links to wiki pages with commercial links, it would be better to delete those links. There may be some gray area of editorial discretion in determining which links violate the WP:EL policy, but a link to a vacation resort site like this is pretty clearly not in that area, especially if the editor posting this has a commercial connection to the site. The value Wikipedia isn't a travel guide, it is an encyclopedia. Notmyrealname 14:55, 27 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I have removed those other commercial links on the Los Cabos page. Wikipedia's definition of "spam" is a little different from some dictionary definitions. It includes links to commercial sites that don't add anything to the article. There are other places on the web for listing hotels and resorts. Notmyrealname 15:19, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Your edits to Los Cabos
This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia.

Your recent edits
Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 15:15, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
