Hello Srobert! Please note that Wikipedia is not intended for advertising. I recently removed your additions to the "Cost" section of the Dental Implants page. It may not have been your intention to cause any harm. We welcome constructive edits to Wikipedia; please do not add advertisement-like material (such as the internet link added to Dental Implants). Thanks for your consideration...we hope you stick around! Feel free to ask any questions. Tingalex 18:44, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.
The link to www.dental-implants.com is a valid link. There are 2000 pages of information there on dental implants. 20,0000 people visit the site per week. I do not understand why you keep removing that link!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Srobert1944 (talk • contribs) 18:50, 20 January 2008
The number of visitors your site receives is irrelevant. The link is removed because it breaches Wikipedia's external links policy. As pointed out above, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Consider this question: "Would Encyclopedia Britannica allow a link to your site?". Try it if you wish, but I think we all know what the answer would be. Whilst you might consider www.dental-implants.com a simple information resource, it is YOUR site and the impression given is that you are trying to sell something or influence someone's decision process as to whether or not to get dental implants.
