External links

Please stop adding unneccesary links to the articles on Members of Parliament.

The links you are adding (such as http://www.parliamentaryyearbook.co.uk/mp-member/anderson-janet.html to Janet Anderson) do not offer any information beyond what is already contained in the articles on MPs and/or in the linked articles on their constituencies, and appear to be designed to promote Blakes Parliamentary Yearbook. This sort of promotion link is not allowed on wikipedia, and is called "spamming" (see WP:SPAM, in particular WP:SPAM#External_link_spamming).

I will now remove the links you have added, and ask you to please stop adding more. Thanks! --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:53, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Please take note of BrownHairedGirl's comments above. I have also spotted this and I don't think that the links you are adding are appropriate under Wikipedia policies. Sam Blacketer (talk) 12:02, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

December 2007

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Richard Bacon (politician). It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Adrian Bailey, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from all of Wikipedia. Dekisugi (talk) 12:13, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
