http://www.diabetes-support.com external links

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Diabetes in cats and dogs do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -- SiobhanHansa 22:55, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 23:41, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Diabetes management. 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. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. 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. Verbal chat 07:52, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

QUESTION: How come you have a link to Diabetic Recipes there??? I tried to put another link to Low Carb Diabetic Recipes as this is a resource that is useful. I don't think the first link was useless, but some people are on Diabetic Diets that are low carb. Did you even click through??? Resources like this should be linked.

See the external links guideline. I have no problem with your removal of the other link, as I don't think it's a notable resource. Take your links to the talk page to gain consensus if you think they are good enough. Verbal chat

Thanks, that makes more sense.

Promotional material

I've removed links and promotional material you had placed at Talk:Dietary supplement. Glancing through your edits, many of them appear to involve inserting links and promotional material to various commercial websites. Wikipedia really isn't an appropriate venue for this; see our policy on promotional material, as well as our guidelines on appropriate sourcing and links for encyclopedic articles. If you continue inserting promotional and unencyclopedic material to articles and talk pages, your account may be blocked from editing. MastCell ^Talk 23:18, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
