User talk:78.68.169.9

Hi there! You recently added a link to the article Muddy Waters that opens to a website | Rhythm and Blues. I would like to understand the context of you adding the Website (to get to whether is self promotion that is against Wikipedia rules) or if it is a valid link that builds on information about the article. You can make a comment on my talk page otherwise I will have to revert your changes in the next 48 hours. You can read more on WP:ELNO on links that shouldn't be added. I believe your edits breaks rule 1
 * Any site that does not provide a unique resource beyond what the article would contain if it became a featured article. In other words, the site should not merely repeat information that is already or should be in the article. Links for future improvement of the page can be placed on the article's talk page.

and rule 11


 * Blogs, personal web pages and most fansites (negative ones included), except those written by a recognized authority. (This exception for blogs, etc., controlled by recognized authorities is meant to be very limited; as a minimum standard, recognized authorities who are individuals always meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for people.)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Rhythm and blues. 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. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:18, 31 May 2018 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page The Coasters has been reverted. Your edit here to The Coasters was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://the-orginal-coasters.webnode.com/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.
