August 2012[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Punjab Board of Investment and Trade has been reverted.
Your edit here to Punjab Board of Investment and Trade 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 (https://www.facebook.com/investinpunjab) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
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) 09:04, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Punjab_Board_of_Investment_and_Trade[edit]

Hi Rafia Syed, I left this message for Pabluico, but as you seem to be the one making edits to Punjab_Board_of_Investment_and_Trade I will leave it again for you. This article does not have any references and does not prove the notability of the subject. Please revise this area of the article or it is likely to be deleted. Most of the recent changes to the article make it sound more like an advertisement and will aid in the case to remove the article, rather than keep it.

If you need any assistance, there are experienced editors at the Teahouse who can help. Thank you, heather walls (talk) 14:58, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
