Hello, I'm Jauerback. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Wooden toy train, because to me it seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thanks, Jauerbackdude?/dude. 14:42, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Unit block. 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. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 14:47, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Wooden toy train. 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.

re: external links
Those are not external links, but internal links to articles within Wikipedia. If there are entries that seem inappropriate, feel free to bring them for discussion at the article talk page at Talk:Wooden toy train. Siawase (talk) 17:09, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Using Wikipedia for any sort of promotion is against policy, see WP:NOTPROMOTION. If you need further assistance I recommend WP:HELPDESK or WP:TEAHOUSE. Siawase (talk) 13:15, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
