Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added such as to the page Portsmouth 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, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. 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. Nuttah (talk) 17:54, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you use Wikipedia for advertising, as you did with Portsmouth, you will be blocked from editing. Nuttah (talk) 18:58, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

I am confused i understand you are just doing your job, but i do believe this is revelant information to the media page for Portsmouth. You have information about an old TV station that folded. Portsmouth Live TV is a new online TV station one of the first in the UK, this is supported by Portsmouth City Council and is not advertising but factual. How would someone go about putting factual information onto the media page for Portsmouth? Please advise

hmm i may take a look

I hope this PortsmouthLiveTV will cover Portsmouth naval events, i may tune in and watch to see if its any good. BritishWatcher (talk) 19:07, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Inclusion requirements

The general inclusion requirements are based on notability and can be found here. In summary, to establish notability a subject has to demonstrate significant coverage in more than one independent reliable source. For a Portsmouth based concern, one such source may be an article in The News concerning the station and its launch. An, admittedly quick, search shows zero coverage of the station.

Additionally, WP:COI strongly suggests not adding material for anything which you are connected. Under the same guidelines, your user name is inappropriate and you user page must not be used to promote the station. Nuttah (talk) 19:22, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
