Hello, I'm Lord Belbury. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Card game have been removed because they seemed to be 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. Thank you.

Hi Lord Belbury, Thank you for your message and please forgive my naiveness to how this all works. I was hoping to place my card game on a ‘card game’ site in the hope of listing is as and when people types it in. It’s an original card game that will eventually be a collecting game too - is there any where I can list it ?

Thanks

 * Short answer would be "no". See WP:SELFPROMOTE: Wikipedia is not the place to directly promote your work. --Lord Belbury (talk) 19:54, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did at WP:SELFPROMOTE, you may be blocked from editing. 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. You can't advertise your game on that page either. PohranicniStraze (talk) 04:51, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for promotion or advertising, as you did at User:Matthehat77. Cabayi (talk) 09:35, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Oh sorry - I am new to this. Can I put descriptive text of the game without any links just as an explanation of the game ? Matthehat77 (talk) 10:17, 7 January 2021 (UTC)


 * No. It's not notable according to the Wiki's guidelines. Once it becomes notable someone could write such an article but preferably not you as you have a conflict of interest. Until that time an article would just be advertising. Cabayi (talk) 11:35, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Ok - that’s understood and thank you for your explanation. Matthehat77 (talk) 11:49, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
