Please note that the links you placed to your commercial photo website, hosted on zenfolio.com have been removed for the following reasons:-
External links
Except for a link to an official page of the article's subject, one should avoid:
- Links mainly intended to promote a website. See external link spamming.
- Links to blogs, personal web pages and most fansites, except those written by a recognized authority.
Conflicts of interest
It is true that a link from Wikipedia to an external site may drive Web traffic to that site. But in line with Wikipedia policies, you should avoid linking to a site that you own, maintain, or represent—even if WP guidelines seem to imply that it may otherwise be linked. When in doubt, you may go to the talk page and let another editor decide. This suggestion is in line with WP's conflict-of-interest guidelines. Richard Harvey (talk) 10:20, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Final Warning Please refrain from adding spamlinks to your commercial website to articles. Continued vandalism may result in your IP address being blocked. Richard Harvey (talk) 23:35, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
