[edit]{{helpme}}
Hi, i have recently added a new entry to the Denmead article to be told that my edit appears to be advertising or for promotional purposes. My apologies for any contravention of the wiki guidelines, having had a read of the guideline notes, i thought that my entry would be appropriate and in line with wiki policy as:
- Denmead Striders
- Village Association
- All Saints' Church
- Denmead Brass Band
- Memorial Hall
are also featured, my site being an offshoot from the Village Association. if you would please be able to provide further clarification it would be appreciation.
many thanks

- Hi Christopher! If another editor interpreted the link you added to Denmead as "spam", it probably appeared to them that your motivation for adding the link is primarily to draw traffic to your site, and less to provide Wikipedia users with more information about Denmead. The way to resolve a conflict like this is to start a conversation about it at Talk:Denmead and explain why you think this link is a useful addition to the Denmead article. If you can come to agreement with other editors then you ought to be able to add the link with a clear conscience. :-) Tim Pierce (talk) 19:12, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
