Hello from 5dsddddd

[edit]

This is your last warning.
The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Bicycle rack, 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.

Hi, and thanks for your reply. Apologies for the rather annoying warning above - it was rather impersonal and not appropriate, and I apologise for that. 22:11 UTC is around midnight in my timezone, so I blame WikiStress. Wikipedia has particularly tight policies on external links. Because of the large amount of traffic, the problem exists that companies use Wikipedia for promotion of their products, something that is not wanted. Therefore, Wikipedia:External links lists some requirements for External Links, and yours did not fit those. I could explain in length, but I will be concise: the Ideal Shield link is about those specific bicycle racks, and how to buy and install them, and does not supply any additional information on bicycle racks. The same applies (probably) for the other pages you added it to.
You were right about the other link - I simply happened to notice your change and reverted it, but now I have removed the other one too. The same reasoning applies. I encourage you to read the policy I linked above. If you are connected to company website you linked, Wikipedia:Conflict of interest might also apply. If not, ignore the following. Ideally, the website to be linked should be that good and informative on the subject that its employees wouldn't have to add it themselves. A good way of doing that is simply making the website that good - reliable statistics (stress tests by consumer organisations, theft statistics of different bicycle racks, etc.) and lists of available bicycle racks over the world would be interesting to read, and worth linking here. I for one am very interested in why the government of Amsterdam, the city I live in, has decided to replace old bicycle racks that were very nice and easy to use, as well as space efficient, with huge and impractical things. Specific comparisons like that are beyond the scope of the Wikipedia article, and thus an external link explaining it would be appropriate per Wikipedia:External links.

The article Stanchion cover has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No assertion of notability besides a single US patent. Can easily be covered in a sentence in Bollard or Stanchion if needed, but there's no reason why the idea of wrapping a post in plastic deserves its own article.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
