Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Hypnosis. 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 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 policy 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, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Please do not replace valid, useful links with blatant advertising.

- Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Hypnosis. 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. Stop adding this link to the hypnosis page. It is blatant advertising and will not be included in the page.WLU 20:07, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

- This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Hypnosis, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia.
