External link on WWII

Hello Bill J.

We're pretty strict about external links, especially for an article as prominent as WWII. Your link looks like an ad more then anything else. To put it into context, even a free eBook on WWII would be "iffy" unless it was from a very well-known / reputable source. Oberiko 17:36, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is the only warning you will receive. Your recent insertion of spam, commercial content, and/or links is prohibited under policy. Any further spamming may result in your account and/or your IP address being blocked from editing Wikipedia.
Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. You are, however, encouraged to add appropriate content to the encyclopedia. If you feel the material in question should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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:

editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
and you must always:
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. --Hu12 01:15, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry if you think i've been spamming, I promise not to add anymore links anywhere else, however, I do think I was only adding pertinent links to articles which added to the interest of the readers, but fair enough if that's what you think then fine. I think however, you are going too far in your warnings vis the Permanent Revolution site, as notwithstanding my relationship to that group, no one as far as I am aware has contested the accuracy of what is written there. I'd like to request that you take down those warnings. p.s. I've added various third party links as requested.

Nomination of Permanent Revolution (group) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Permanent Revolution (group) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Permanent Revolution (group) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Superheroes Fighting (talk) 03:29, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
