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.

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! David Ruben Talk 14:43, 11 January 2007 (UTC)


 * [[Image:Information.svg|25px]] 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 before reinserting it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia.  -- Siobhan Hansa 20:37, 12 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi Helen. Thanks for leaving a message on my talk page.  Your edits have entirely been about promoting websites registered to Helen or Alistair Smeaton.  Your links were deleted because they were considered to meet Wikipedia's definition of spam and appeared to breach our conflict of interest guidelines.  While external links can be useful, they are the least useful addition because they are not helping us build a GFDL encyclopedia.  It would be great if you would consider adding well sourced content to Wikipedia rather than links to other sites.  Thanks -- Siobhan Hansa 11:54, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
