Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Hollyoaks 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. ~~ [Jam][talk] 07:34, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to House (TV series). 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. --aktsu (t / c) 17:04, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to The Twilight Zone. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. J.delanoygabsadds 17:08, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing their websites from appearing on Wikipedia. ~~ [Jam][talk] 21:46, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Thanks for your feedback!

Hmm, I'm not sure the link would be accepted even then. I'm no expert on WP-policies and guidelines, but looking at WP:LINKSTOAVOID it may go under Links mainly intended to promote a website and/or Sites that are inaccessible to a substantial number of users, such as sites that only work with a specific browser (given the access is depening on region - I for one can't find a single video on the site). I would suggest you ask on the talk page of the shows in question and see what they think. Cheers, --Aktsu (t / c) 05:15, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
