Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Vacation rental do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Qwyrxian (talk) 11:58, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Explaining Wikipedia
Hi. I'm not sure if you're just not understanding Wikipedia's purpose or function, but please know that you cannot use any part of Wikipedia (articles, your talk page, etc.) to advertise other sites. If you need help learning about Wikipedia, you can ask me on my talk page; I'm also going to leave some links below that will introduce you to some Wikipedia basics.
