You appear to be adding external links to a wide range of articles to theses prepared by students of Linfield College.
Please read Wikipedia:External Links and consider each external link that you add carefully in the context of that policy. You should be especially careful if it could be perceived that you may have a conflict of interest. FrankFlanagan (talk) 22:39, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

External links

Please read WP:ELNO before adding further links. Cheers Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:40, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Mily Balakirev. 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 guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. 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. TJRC (talk) 23:52, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

This is your last warning; the next time you insert a spam link, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 17:22, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

External links

I'm responding to your post on my talk page.

Your link additions were reverted, by me and by other editors, because they appear to be added not to support particular articles, but rather to promote the site where the links point. The one thing the links have in common is that they point back to a school site. It appears that you approached this as "Hey, I have a bunch of papers on this site; what Wikipedia articles can I link to it?" The close proximity in time of your additions, in conjunction with the fact that you are a brand-new (and so far WP:SPA) editor suggests that you did not do any consideration of the articles (none of which you have ever edited before), other than to look for a home for your links.

Please read the many suggestions left by other editors above. Read the guidelines on external links and understand them.

In general, an undergraduate student's school paper is not the type of resource that is appropriate for an external link. TJRC (talk) 22:34, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm jumping in here--from your link additions, it looks like you may be a librarian or an archivist. There have been extensive discussions about this topic. Start here: User:Beetstra/Archivists and then read here: Wikipedia:GLAM getting started. If I am mistaken, feel free to disregard--the links (blue links which you should click on and read) others have given you should suffice. Valfontis (talk) 23:04, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
