Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to International medical graduate. 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) 19:34, 19 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi MrOllie. I'm not sure why is it okay for you to keep US Residency programs Database linked to a paid service (https://www.residencyprogramslist.com/) but keep removing and accusing of spam a site that offers free educational resources to an undeserved community such as International Medical Graduates. As you said, there is no benefit whatsoever to this website other than helping International Medical Graduates applying to US Residency to get to know more about the process. If my link cannot be published then you should also remove the other services listed otherwise this is a tremendously unethical and unfair treatment from your part.
