Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. 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. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Veinor (talk to me) 20:43, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks. You quickly replaced the inappropriate external link to a commercial site after it had been removed and you had been told of the policy. Continuing to place inappropriate links can be construed as vandalism. Please stop this unhelpful behavior. Buddhipriya 23:31, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
