Welcome

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising in articles. For more information on this, see

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write {{helpme}} below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia.

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! - MrOllie (talk) 20:04, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your link additions[edit]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:08, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re your message: You were adding links where the link was not appropriate to the content of the article. Not being an advertisement is one of several reasons why a link is not appropriate, but not the only reason. The relevant guideline is at Wikipedia:External links. I do notice that you posted a message on the relevant Talk page, but since you did not receive any feedback, you did not gain a consensus on re-adding the link. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:48, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re your message: Your links were not appropriate to several of the articles (for example, North Pole, South Pole, Artic Circle, and International Date Line) because you they did not contribute substantially to the understanding of the topic that was not already covered in the article itself. As I said to you earlier, if you feel that the links should be added, I recommend that you leave a message on the respective talk pages and if other editors agree with the link addition and you reach a consensus, re-add the link. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:40, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
