The additions were made to several pages involving members of the SRIA and therefore relevant links to the Bishop Wilkins SRIA site which is educational and non-commercial. This was not an attempt at spamming but simply an update of directly connected articles. Semarkham (talk) 11:15, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Christian Rosenkreuz 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 as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because 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 article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. BO ; talk 08:32, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the information. The order and Bishop Wilkins College are based around the life of Christian Rosenkreuz and there are many research papers on the site which directly relate to him but I have no problem or complaints if it is felt that the link is inappropriate.
