Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of company registers, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Washington and Georgia (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Information icon Hello, I'm Stesmo. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of List of company registers. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Information icon Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to List of company registers. 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 websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Stesmo (talk) 08:33, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to List of company registers. 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. Stesmo (talk) 22:19, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This has absolutely nothing to do with advertising or promotion. This is NOT the yellow pages. This is a list of official, government company registers. SERutherford (talk) 16:01, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You continue adding External Links to the body of an article even after discussion, explanation and reading WP:EL. My assumption at the beginning was that you weren't aware of all of Wikipedia's rules and guidelines. And, that's easy to do, as there are so, so, so many of them. So, I included links to WP:EL and even pointed you to the EL Noticeboard (where a similar discussion is just being wrapped up). We had a civil discussion on my Talk page. I explained in each of my reverts why these links had to go. But, it appears you are now acting with the full knowledge that those spam/external links are not to be there *and still reverting the edits that remove them*. That moves it from an innocent mistake to potential spammer. So, you are warned with a Spam2 warning. And, you add the spam/external links back again. So. Spam3. I don't know what you're trying to promote with these spam/external links, but it has no place here. Please stop adding external links to the bodies of Wikipedia articles.

Hi SERutherford - I think what they are doing to your Company Registries page is an absolute travesty. Is there a way we can chat by email? I'd like to help find a way to host this elsewhere if they cannot understand or appreciate the HUGE service you provide. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.44.40.169 (talk) 05:14, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
