Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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 web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it.


 * To expand on the above, the Model Ship Display Cases link you have added to various pages doesn't meet the external links guideline, because:
 * It links to a page the principal purpose of which is to promote or sell goods and services;
 * It is tangential to the actual subject matetr (a link to a page selling cases in which to put ship models rather than a page about ship models themselves); and
 * It provides no unique information relevant to the article topic.


 * This is not meant to sound unfriendly, just to explain why the link has been removed. Feel free to let me know if you disagree with any of the above, or if I can help in any other way. Euryalus (talk) 02:39, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
