  Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Petworth. 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 websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a website 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 page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you.

I notice that the link has been removed for a few other pages I had added it to inc. Chichester and Chichester District. But I notice that similar websites have been allowed elsewhere on wikipedia such as on 'Cotswolds' which inspired me to add Visit Chichester. There should be a consistent approach across wikipledia. I would be grateful for clarification. My understanding is that visitchichester is a not for profit organisation. Best wishes.Reply
