Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Green Man. Wikipedia is not a collection 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 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. Old Moonraker (talk) 22:56, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Green Man, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Please also check WP:SPAMNAME regarding your username. --Old Moonraker (talk) 22:58, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I have reverted your further addition to Green man for failing to comply with the opening paragraph policy. Equally, WP:TOPIC also applies: why are you trying to force in a shopping/ business topic into this article about an ancient cultural phenomenon? If you think "Earth-List green businesses" is important enough to include, start a new article, but bear in mind that you will receive criticism from those concerned about the conflict of interest policy. If "green man" appears in the new article, make a disambiguation link to it. --Old Moonraker (talk) 23:22, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Green Man, you may be blocked from editing. Old Moonraker (talk) 06:08, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
