Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did at Event-driven architecture, you may be blocked from editing. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings.

 * Would you mind explaining why a link to AsyncAPI is spam and a link to CloudEvents is not? Both projects are Linux Foundation projects, open source, and open governance. In the case of AsyncAPI, even the finances are transparent in opencollective.com/asyncapi and it's the most adopted EDA specification. How is that spam? Would be great to read a honest opinion. Thanks. Fmvilas (talk) 18:11, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You're evading a block on your account User:Twitter imabptweets to continue to add this link. Please focus more on your own violations of policy and not on other links on Wikipedia. MrOllie (talk) 18:17, 16 January 2022 (UTC)


 * You and someone collaborating with you (or you using another account, it doesn't matter which) have been editing for the sole purpose of attracting readers of Wikipedia to another web site. What kind of project that web site relates to is irrelevant, because linking for the purpose of publicising any web site is unacceptable. If you know of links which exist for the purpose of promoting or publicising another web site then tell us where they are, and they can be removed too. We have no way whatever of telling whether the other links you mention are suitable or not, because we don't know where they are, and therefore can't look at them to find out.

 * Alright, thanks for the explanation. We're not seeking promotion. We honestly think it's useful for the reader to know there's a specification for Event-Driven Architectures in the Event-Driven Architectures article on Wikipedia. I could be wrong though. This has not been a malicious editing. For the sake of context, we asked for help from the community here: https://twitter.com/AsyncAPISpec/status/1482338187913670657 and the other user just jumped in to help with the best intention. It would be great if at least you could unblock him as he was genuinely trying to help. Fmvilas (talk) 10:14, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You're not seeking promotion, but you asked your community to promote on your behalf. And when that didn't work, you came on to do it yourself? Please have a read of WP:COI, WP:ELNO and WP:CRONY, the Wikipedia community does not like this kind of activity at all. They may have been trying to help you, but by using Wikipedia for promotion they were not helping Wikipedia. - MrOllie (talk) 15:37, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
