Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Solar panel has been reverted. Your edit here to Solar panel was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=7ZNgP_U64a8) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 22:41, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Solar panel. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Joja lozzo  03:53, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Solar panel with this edit. 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. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

Hello, ThermoClass. I have been looking at your editing in response to a report about you at Administrator intervention against vandalism. I do not see your editing as "vandalism", and I am not sure that "spamming", as used above, is the right word for what you have been doing, because I see no clear evidence that you are intending to advertise, but it really does seem that the link you have repeatedly added does not comply with the guideline on external links. However, there is also another issue. If you find that others disagree with your edits and revert them, you should not simply keep repeating the same, or virtually the same, edit. For people to continually revert one another's edits in this way, known as edit warring, is not constructive. In fact, if it continues, it can even lead to editors being blocked from editing to prevent the disruption that edit wars cause. If you really think that your edits are justified, please start a discussion on the article's talk page, to try to reach agreement, rather than simply trying to force your view through by repeatedly reverting to your preferred version.
