Please stop adding spam links to Wikipedia articles. Your edits will be reverted. - Dudesleeper · Talk 21:42, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory 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 policy for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it.

Since you are discussing the deletes on article talk pages, where you should sign your name, BTW, I'm going to offer a more helpful welcome/warning combination.--Hjal 05:25, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Welcome

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising in articles. For more information on this, see If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write   below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome!

Link spam
You seem to not be understanding what you're being told on the various talk pages. As the owner of 71miles, it is inappropriate for your to use Wikipedia to promote your website. All your link additions have been reverted, and if I see them pop up again, you will be blocked for spamming. You obviously have valuable information on destinations along the California Coast, and we welcome you writing actual encyclopedic, sourced text about such locations (I can suggest some needed articles, if you want), but adding links to your company's website is inappropriate. Thanks for respecting our guidelines.  AK Radecki Speaketh  23:23, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Bovolo, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. super &beta;&epsilon;&epsilon; cat 00:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
