I understand you're a very infrequent contributor to Wikipedia, and that you may not be familiar with policies and guidelines. Adding links to one's own website is promotional and a conflict of interest, and returning to revert another editor, particularly one upholding COI guidelines, without talk-page discussion is a form of edit-warring, which can be cause to alert a Wikipedia admin. I ask that you read these bluelink policies/guidelines and please familiarize yourself a bit with Wikipedia before editing.

As founder of Roadside America magazine, you could be of invaluable service to Wikipedia with your knowledge. If your primary intent is to add self-promotional links to your site, however, that really isn't of great use in our altruistic, volunteer attempts to create a free, global encyclopedia that anyone with access to a computer can use.--Tenebrae (talk) 16:26, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

Indeed I am an infrequent contributor to Wikipedia, but I'm also the founder of Roadside Magazine. There is no such thing (and never was) as Roadside America Magazine. If my link is in conflict with Wikipedia policies, then I'm fine with omitting the link to my site, which is the online companion to Roadside Magazine. If you would like to place the link, please be my guest, but at least get your facts straight.
