This is the second time you have added PingBetter to the article on SSH tunneling. Smoothping was added only because it was a source used and cited in the article. Do not add PingBetter again. This is not an advertising platform.

Hi Wilson,

I do not understand why PingBetter was removed because it is a source used and cited in the article.

Hello -

I saw that there was a citation added this time around. This was never the case before, hence its removal; however, the citation given this time was not a reliable source for what it was attempting to cite - that is, there was no mention whatever of Nagle's Algorithm in the link to the FAQ of the commercial site linked, nor anything to provide credible source material to back up this article. Please review http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources. Removed and reverted. Watson1966 (talk) 23:39, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Stop Spamming Wikipedia with Smoothping
Just as you said to PingBetter please stop spamming Smoothping on the "Wikipedia Latency Reduction - SSH Tunneling" page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_Reduction_-_SSH_Tunneling

Based on the history of this article when you initially created this page you individually quoted one tunneling service with "as reported by a subscriber to the Smoothping service". Since then you have externally linked SmoothPing adjusted the content around SmoothPing and created a promotional bias towards SmoothPing. Your actions have also created incentive for more citation spam from competitors, Wikipedia IS NOT an advertising platform.

The article has been edited to be neutral to all tunneling services. Directly linking a tunnel service is not providing valid content in good faith but rather promotion and breaks Wikipedia's rules please refer to points 1, 2 and 3 at the end of this message.

If you continue to add bias to this page by providing references to individual competitors in order to create promotion rather than leaving the page neutral to SSH tunneling services then it will be up to Wikipedia to figure out what to do next.
