User talk:Cairns Convention Centre marketing

August 2022
Hello, I'm Adakiko. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Cairns Convention Centre—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 10:32, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Cairns Convention Centre. Wikipedia is not a collection of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links may include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated 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 article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 10:38, 8 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Can you please advise what link was inappropriate. I remove AEG Ogden as the company no longer exists and replaced it with ASM Global. AEG Ogden was linked so I replaced it with the new company link. I don't see what is wrong with updating the information Cairns Convention Centre marketing (talk) 10:40, 8 August 2022 (UTC)


 * That link does not mention "Cairns Convention Centre", so it doesn't support the content. So it appears to be spam. Use a citation. Maybe Wiki-link to ASM Global. Adakiko (talk) 19:53, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
 * It does mention Cairns Convention Centre, it is one of the venues they manage https://www.asmglobal.com/p/our-portfolio/convention-exhibition-centers/cairns-convention-centre Cairns Convention Centre marketing (talk) 20:39, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Your link was to https://www.asmglobal.com which in of itself does not mention CCC. So, it did not support your edit. BTW: The use of a wp:BAREURLs is discouraged. See wp:citing sources. Adakiko (talk) 21:05, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Block notice
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, club, organization, company, or website, I have blocked this account. Please take a moment to either create a new account, or request a change of username of your current account here. The new username must represent only yourself as an individual and comply with Wikipedia's username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit. Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company". If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text  at the bottom of your talk page. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text   at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. Thank you. Cabayi (talk) 10:58, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
