In response to your feedback edit

I have looked at the page that you are talking about. The person who removed your paragraph should have left an edit summary letting you know why the text was removed. Unfortunately they did not. You could ask on the editors talk page.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added 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 as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because 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 constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie Talk 21:05, 27 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

I did discuss adding it on the article's talk page, and it was agreed that it was acceptable to add. I am not attempting to advertise or promote, I am just attempting to add facts to the Wikipedia page.Jlanea4 (talk) 18:34, 2 April 2012 (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.

I don't understand why my source in inappropriate. I am not attempting to advertise or promote a company, I am only attempting to add facts to Wikipedia. This is a reliable, published policy paper. Will you please explain why this source is inappropriate?Jlanea4 (talk) 18:34, 2 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
