From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the external links you added to the page General Teaching Council for England do not comply with our guidelines for external links. Wikipedia is not a mere directory 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, then 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. Veinor (talk to me) 17:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Ezeu 16:51, 21 May 2007 (UTC)


[edit] October 2007 (http://spam.teachers.tv)

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Secondary education, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing their websites from appearing on Wikipedia and other sites that use the MediaWiki spam blacklist. MER-C 10:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make any unconstructive edits, please ignore this warning.

[edit] March 2008

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Comedy Dave, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing their websites from appearing on Wikipedia.

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Comedy Dave, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you.

I see you tried to ask MER-C, I'll answer. You are only adding links, which we define as spamming here (it has nothing to do with what you link to, it is how you add them). Teachers.tv resides on a computer with IP 213.52.247.4, the same computer as that you use, hence I would like you to review our conflict of interest guideline. To go further, we are writing an encyclopedia here, not a linkfarm. Your link may be useful, but if you continue adding the link without discussing and getting consensus on either the talkpages, or with an appropriate wikiproject before you add the link, the link may very well end up being blacklisted. Please stop. --Dirk Beetstra T C 10:59, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
