Hello, I'm MrOllie. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. [1] MrOllie (talk) 11:24, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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 (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), 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. [2] MrOllie (talk) 12:53, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for sharing this info. I will take care of this from now onwards MrOllie. Just need to confirm, have you removed the citations from all my previous edits? This is because I have researched each one of them to verify these facts and updates regarding different products. I have read the guidelines and these links serve as a source for a page with a lot more information regarding that specific Wikipedia product/service pages. This falls under the guidelines. Also, can I add those to talkpages in order to restore them? Please confirm.
- Thank you.

- Yes, they have been removed. 'techietech' is not a reliable source for Wikipedia, and you have been spamming this link. If you continue to add links to this site, it is likely that your account will be blocked. - MrOllie (talk) 11:04, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Understood, but all the information published over there is reliable and backed by credible sources and thousands of user reviews. If this does not make a source reliable, I'd really appreciate it if you could share more information as to what does or how I can make a source more reliable. I've seen similar websites being cited throughout Wikipedia, that's why I cited this website in relevant Wikipedia pages. NeerajBhateja (talk) 11:11, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- See WP:RS. Reliability on Wikipedia is more about editorial process and length of tenure. Wikipedia is a big site and volunteer time is limited, if you have seen other unreliable sources on Wikipedia that is a reason to fix those sources, not to make more work for us by adding more unreliable stuff. - MrOllie (talk) 11:33, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Got it. I'll be updating pages on their respective talkpages only. So, it can be fact-checked by other people. Let me know if that is the right way to become a good contributor. Also, some of my edits were based on primary research backed by thousands of user reviews and multiple articles from leading news agencies. Please confirm whether I can update those or not.--NeerajBhateja (talk) 11:52, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
