[edit] Spamming
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in Sara Evans. Wikipedia is not a mere directory 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 that you are affiliated with, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --Yamla 18:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia. --Yamla 16:44, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
You said: "The edit that you flagged me for is valid. Sara Evans is the spokeswoman for Johnson & Johnson lotion. Please revisit the site to see. She receives payment to be on that site and her name is tied to the brand. Thank you!"
- I don't doubt that, but it just isn't appropriate to link in to an advertising campaign in that article. --Yamla 22:12, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
