Adding links to sites you own (i.e., whois records are public[edit]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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.

[[Wikipedia articles may include links to web pages outside Wikipedia (external links), but they should not normally be used in the body of an article. All external links must conform to certain formatting restrictions. Some acceptable links include those that contain further research that is accurate and on-topic, information that could not be added to the article for reasons such as copyright or amount of detail, or other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article for reasons unrelated to its accuracy.]]

Population links[edit]

Please see WP:Reliable sources. Commercial scraper sites (i.e., sites that simply replicate government records on an ad-laden site) do not meet EL guidelines. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 17:56, 7 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how a "Web Urbanist" article is more relevant than a website featuring user content and relevant links. Plus this site is not a commercial "scraper" site. This site is not for profit and has generated no income.

Read Wikipedia:ELNO#Advertising_and_conflicts_of_interest (and WP:COI while you're at it). OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:02, 7 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ohnoitsjamie, there is no conflict of interest because I don't own that website. That website is perfectly relevant and there is no reason to block its submission. I'm starting to wonder why you are so protective of this page. What is your hidden conflict of interest? It seems like you have plenty of time to pursue it… The Wikipedia page needs more links because it doesn't offer any with a comprehensive view of the sport.

The owner of the domain matches your user name. We call that a "conflict of interest." Your accusation of COI is silly. What possible interest could I have in that page other than keeping free of everyone's personal ad-laden websites? OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:14, 7 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.
