Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

Hi Jamie,

I am writing in regards to my link being deleted off of Wikipedia. I am concerned about the equality and fairness of Wikipedia. I see that many of my competitors are listed, and are without doubt receiving traffic from Wikipedia. This traffic results in even more traffic from the search engines. I pride our website in being of a higher quality than that of other sites with similar content on Wikipedia, yet they remain, and I am being deleted, and we are being squeezed out by organizations such as yours. We are attempting to establish a high quality website. We have many pages with well-researched, original, cited information, yet we are being told we are not welcome at Wikipedia. I would very much appreciate an explanation, if possible, of how older, stagnant, sources continue to be listed and we are being removed. I know it is not in your scope of work to do so and that I do not deserve a reply, but it would help me to understand better how your organization works.

Best Regards,

Jason Cuce

Jamie,

Thank you for your reply, I very much appreciate your time. I have read the policies but the reality is this - commercial websites are being listed, some of them are competitors of mine. There is absolutely no way I can or would ever attempt to take value away from someone else's business, that is simply not how I operate. The only thing I would ever ask is to be treated fairly, if possible. If I can add my input into any review of Wikipedia policies, it would be to review how commercial sites are listed and periodically reviewed. We are working extraordinarily hard to generate a dynamic, interesting and fresh website, but are being severely hindered by policies such as those at Wikipedia. I don't intend for this statement to be argumentative, and won't post again, I only to see if there is a way to review this policy in the near future. Also, if it would be possible, to add documentation on how to appropriately get listed if we believe we have quality information to add to Wikipedia. Again, thank you for your time.

Best Regards,

Jason Cuce
 * There is no document on "how to get listed"; Wikipedia is not a link directory or marketing vehicle, period. I just removed about 40 links from one of your competitors, and will blacklist holidayyear if I see it again. OhNo itsJamie  Talk 18:46, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
