Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article LASIK, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. ''Please see WP:MINOR for the guidelines on what constitutes a "minor" edit. Addition of content is not "minor".'' Glaucus (talk) 16:21, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added 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. - Ahunt (talk) 15:23, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

The recent edit you made to Learjet 25 constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. — mc10 ( t / c ) 15:23, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to Honda HA-420 HondaJet. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. — mc10 ( t / c ) 15:26, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to Honda HA-420 HondaJet. — mc10 ( t / c ) 15:29, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for adding spam links. Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia and potentially penalized by search engines. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. JohnCD (talk) 19:22, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Reply to your email
I am sorry to have been slow to reply - you will get a faster response by posting on this talk page, which I am watching.

Your link additions: Wikipedia is extremely resistant to being used for any form of advertising or promotion, and has strong rules against it - see WP:ELNO and WP:LINKSPAM. You made no less than 14 additions of links to www.MicroJetNetwork.com, continuing despite four separate warnings on your talk page, including a final warning that you would be blocked if you continued. Linkspamming is counterproductive because it is rapidly reverted and because it may lead to the target site being blacklisted on all Mediawiki projects.

If you want to be unblocked, you should make an unblock request by putting  at the bottom of this talk page, which will be considered by another administrator. You should first read the WP:Guide to appealing blocks; you will have to convince the reviewing admin that you understand why you were blocked and will not repeat that conduct.

Your LASIK addition: as you sign yourself "Founder www.LifeAfterLasik.com Hurt LASIK Patient Network" it is clear that you have, from Wikipedia's point of view, a WP:Conflict of interest here. That does not necessarily stop you editing, but there are rules laid down at WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest: basically, suggest changes, declaring your interest, and let uninvolved users decide. I will post your suggestion for you on the talk page of the LASIK article, and will also post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine to attract the attention of editors interested in this area. ("Editors" means the same as "user" - there is no separate class of editors).
