June 2017 edit

  Hello, I'm Jim1138. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Chatbot 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. Thank you.

Blogs are not considered wp:reliable sources (RS) as the content is likely not under editorial review. See wp:NOTRS. Also, they are very closely associated with a business and likely classify as wp:spam. Please find a source that fits RS. If you wish to reply, please use wp:notifications Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 21:55, 28 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

November 2017 edit

  Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Google Attribution. 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. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 07:10, 2 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

March 2020 edit

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at Minimum viable product. 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.

  • Also, please stop adding any blogs, forums, PR sites and similar sources as references. These types of sites are generally not considered reliable, see WP:RS for more information. Thank you for your consideration. GermanJoe (talk) 10:25, 10 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
