Welcome
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Ostrich, seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising. For more information on this, see:

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! Drmies (talk) 04:56, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
External links edit
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.Clovis Sangrail (talk) 05:03, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
{{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. JohnCD (talk) 15:50, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia and potentially penalized by search engines.
