Hello, I'm Nick Moyes. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Berenice Abbott have been removed because they 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. ''Unless one museum holds a major permanent collection of works  of an artist/photographer,  there  is no justification for linking to it. And were you to do so, just linking to its homepage is  pointless. This applies to all your edits today, which I am about to reverse. May I ask you not to repeat that, but to consider adding less promotional and more useful external links  in future, please?''  Nick Moyes (talk) 09:44, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Wayman Elbridge Adams. 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.

''Please stop randomly adding museum links to articles without clear justification. Whilst you may personally know the gallery holds one or more of their works, you must prove this with a hyperlink that makes the external link worthwhile.'' Nick Moyes (talk) 09:52, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Bob Adelman. 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.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Lucien Aigner. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion.

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Charles Avery Aiken. 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.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Robert Ingersoll Aitken. ''If you don't want to be blocked, just use your talk page to justify why you're adding these art gallery links to external links for no reason. Any more additions without clear justification will now get you blocked from editing, which seems a real shame. I am trying to assist you here. Discuss, not disrupt!''
