If you are referring to these edits, then they were reverted because that IP was adding/modifying the links to the same website and using wikipedia to promote your site is not allowed. Corpx 03:28, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

but they are all different websites via cities. they look the same but all of the links pertain to the specific cities information -- for instance, askussandiego.com and askuslosangeles and askusoceanside, etc... has the same look but have all of the information (tourist info, local directory and attractions guides) for that particular city.


 * Which leads me to believe that the same person made all those sites and since you were adding links to these same sites, I'm assuming you were trying to promote sites that you are involved with, which isnt allowed through wikipedia. Corpx 01:36, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

i thought the external links is to have content that helps your visitors with information regarding the city they are interested in learning about? the sites i posted have city information, history information, factoids regarding the city, and visitor inormation. what more do you want from a website that links to the external city section? isn't wikipedia supposed to be an inforamtion highway pertaining to it's categories? And what makes the sites i'm including different from any other site that is already in the external san diego link pages? such as: http://www.sandiego.org/nav/Visitors  or  http://sandan.org/   Jsdowney 09:48, 20 June 2007 (UTC)jsdowney


 * Well, the first link is a non-profit link and the second link is the official convention & visitors bureau, so there's no conflict of interest. You adding a link to your sites definately is a conflict of interest. Corpx 17:23, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Besides, all those sites are exact clones, except the city name is replaced in each version. All they are is a directory of links, which is pretty much what any yellow-page site does.  Corpx 17:27, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
