Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Jigsaw puzzle. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Jigsaw puzzle links
"You appear to have camped out on (jigsaw puzzle)."
 * I am not camped out, it is one of many articles on my watchlist.

"If you are so intent on preventing inappropriate links then why have you not removed the following ? "1. ^ 'Whimsies' & The History of The Wooden Jigsaw Puzzle"
 * This link is reference, not an external links. The rules are different for the two.

"1. Jigsaw Puzzles, a Brief History, by Anne D. Williams"
 * I agree, that link is pretty bad as well. It should probably go.

"In addition the following statement makes no logical sense. [...]"
 * I agree that that could use some copy editing.

"It does neither of us any good to continue this continuous editing. I thought that Wikipedia was intended for all users to edit. You clearly do not want this happening."
 * Wikipedia is intended for all to edit. Please assume good faith on my part.  In no way do I want to exclude productive contributors from editing the encyclopedia, but I do revert additions of things that I feel go against the policies and practices of the WP.

"If this keeps up you may well find yourself banned."
 * If you feel that I am doing something that merits banning or even a warning, feel free to report me at Requests for administrator attention.

"It would be in all our interests to cooperate. User:Gciesek 21:03, 2 September 2007 (UTC)"
 * I couldn't agree more!

The bottom line for me is that you seem to really want this link included in the webpage. That is great, but I feel that, based on your previous comments, you want it included because it brings traffic to your website. I don't personally feel that it adds to the article in anyway, but I suggest that you bring it up for comment and discussion at the talk page for jigsaw puzzle. --Chuck Sirloin 16:51, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
