Links
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. --Ronz (talk) 18:57, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I could not see how I can talk with you, while I tried. Spam? I think it is carrying it to an extreme. The link fit perfectly well with an unique aspect of subject matter and enriched it. I know it is nofollow, and don't care about search engines. I care about contributing relevant matter and hate to see it disappear, not to mention-with a admonishment!

 * Thanks for responding. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. In this case, by "spam" I'm referring to adding the same link to multiple articles as examples.  Wikipedia has massive problems with people adding links to promote their websites, so we police for such situations fairly carefully.  --Ronz (talk) 17:35, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
