Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Brooke Fraser. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. 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 rather than re-adding it. Thank you. This is the second page you have added this spam link to, please stop. BananaFiend (talk) 12:00, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Bleeders. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Advertising Links

Hi Dave, I saw your comment on my page, and I'm looking into it... BananaFiend (talk) 12:14, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

OK - I've had a look, and the account you are posting from has only been used to add the link, and to a variety of artists (Bic Runga etc.). According to Wikipedia:External_links:

1. Links to sites that primarily exist to sell products or services, or to sites with objectionable amounts of advertising.

This site is only there to sell products, and wikipedia is not an advertising site, I stand by my edits but I am willing to discuss this. BananaFiend (talk) 12:32, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
