Hello everyone, im trying to find out who is responsible for removing the references on the darbuka (goblet drum) page. They are references to help others learning this drum with good teaching content. Why does it keep on being removed? Also why is there no communication? I have alot of free videos for people on youtube and want them to find them. pacerman265 Pacerman265 (talk) 02:31, 28 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added such as to the page Goblet drum 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, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. 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. As the author of the Fingers of Fury website, which sells access to e-books, videos, mp3s, webcam footage and drum lessons, you should not be adding links to the site.

  This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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.
