Hi! I was hoping I could get some help regarding the 2 external links I tried to add the other day. I see the message above indicates the links were deemed to be advertising and were removed. this is not the case and I am confused what the appropriate way to obtain a link is. Some of the other external links I see posted are no different than the link I was trying to post. For example, the "Telecom Audit Guide" and the "White Paper: Reducing Telecom Costs – Why Invoice Management Is the Best Place to Start" links are of a similar genre. In any case, I was hoping I could get help adding this external link without it serving a promotional purpose. The link was merely supposed to be informational and help those trying to understand what telecom expense management is. Thanks in advance for your help and I look forward to finding out how I can fix this!
 * Just because another similar link shows up doesn't mean it's acceptable too. Simply adding links without any specific reasoning is generally considered spamming, even if you're doing it in good faith. The links you're adding seem to be promotional in nature and are generally to be avoided. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 16:15, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
