Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to BMW X4. 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.  MrOllie (talk) 13:39, 10 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Confirming, any changes made doesn't need citation? Will you consider any citation link as spam? Abigadgets (talk) 13:45, 10 July 2023 (UTC)


 * If you read the information provided to you and you may understand why your edits are inappropriate. -- VViking Talk Edits 13:49, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * ok, I need to learn more and looks like I am learning hard way. Especially when I see citation from various sites like wired, Insider, tech crunch, CNN..etc I am not sure why these are not promotional and mine was? Abigadgets (talk) 14:05, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * You don't understand the difference between a major news outlet like CNN and your own self published web site? MrOllie (talk) 14:13, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, this I what I wanted to hear, this clearly states your bias. After all news outlets like CNN are also run by individuals like me and what Amazon has developed in last 3-4 years wont change this! And the policies you were citing are being violated when the same info is posted by so called major outlets while they are sharing their promotional links. Abigadgets (talk) 14:22, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Just stop spamming us. Thanks. MrOllie (talk) 14:25, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Apologies, This wasn't my intent. I did what I saw is a common practice but I forgot rules are always different for so called major outlets vs a common man!! Abigadgets (talk) 14:29, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
