From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Bar Harbor (town), Maine. 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 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, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Hertz1888 16:33, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External photo galleries

Hi Photog2800,

Please don't add external links to galleries like leefortier.smugmug.com, especially those that you are associated with, and especially to multiple articles. Although I assume you've done this in good faith, this could be considered spamming by some, and is strongly disouraged. Please see our policy on external links for more information. If, after that, you still have any questions, please let me know. I notice you haven't been officially welcomed yet; while I'm here, I'll do the honors. --barneca (talk) 13:16, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
