 * I'm not spamming mate, I am posting links to recipes of the items of Brazilian Food listed on Wikipedia. My recipes contain more information on the dishes and often include a video. I make no money from publishing my content and do it out of love for the food of my country. If the fact that I had some time free and could sit down and do several postings in a couple of hours triggers the Wikipedia spam filter, it's not my fault. These are all legitimate postings in keeping the informative nature of the site and I invite you to spend some time checking out the recipes to certify that there's no hidden advertising or commercial interest.
 * Mate, adding recipes like that *is* spamming. Take a look at WP:EL for the types of links that are deemed suitable.  In general, the links you are putting into articles are not.  I appreciate you're trying to be helpful, but the person who comes along and cleans up afterwards mightn'y see it that way.  Thanks.  --HighKing (talk) 20:44, 6 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I have reviewed the pages suggested about link spam and continue to maintain that the pages I am linking too have recipes or recipe videos describing exactly the item on the Wikipedia page. Unfortunately there is no 'official' governmental organ responsible for purveying information on Brazilian cuisine. That is partly the reason why I do it. In fact you will find links to my site on the Brazilian Embassy site in the UK (http://www.brazil.org.uk/culture/gastronomy.html). If they think it's worth mentioning my contribution, why shouldn't Wikipedia? Nandocuca (talk) 15:01, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Take this as your 3rd warning. Stop adding inappropriate external links which are in violation of policy.  Take a read of WP:EL.  Your link is to a self-published blog which is not seen as appropriate.  It's nice that the embassy linked to your site, but any type of promotion (especially self-promotion) is frowned on here.  Be aware that you may have your account blocked from editing if you continue to add links to your website.  --HighKing (talk) 13:47, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * BTW, I've looked at your website and personally I think it is very good. (Teeny iframe error at the very bottom though).  --HighKing (talk) 13:48, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
