From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please stop adding commercial links to Wikipedia, as you did in Baldness treatments. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks.  Netsnipe  (Talk)  05:43, 27 July 2006 (UTC)


Please stop. If you continue spamming you will be blocked from editing. Mwanner | Talk 15:08, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, one of the most fundamental rules of Wikipedia's external links policy is that thou shalt not add a link to your own site. Add to that the fact that the article you added to already has way too many external links, and the fact that your site is unlikely to be adding any new information, and that pretty well wraps it up. Why don't you look over the article and see if you can make some improvements to the text. That's what we really need.

With that said, Welcome!

Please read what I said: you cannot add a link to your own site. And no, external links are not about copyrighted material-- please read WP:EL. The only thing in your site that cannot be put directly in our article is the language: facts are not copyrightable. If you would like to go through our article and add any missing facts, that would be great.
One other point-- the links that are in the article presently are not "approved", it's just that no one has gotten around to cleaning them out yet (a fairly tiresome job). -- Mwanner | Talk 13:20, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
