Welcome
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions seem to be advertising or for promotional purposes. Wikipedia does not allow advertising in articles. For more information on this, see

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 web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. 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 rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Ckatzchatspy 02:29, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ann Logsdon, thanks for respecting Ckatz's removal, and for respecting the external links policy of Wikipedia. Eubulides (talk) 02:57, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed. Please keep in mind that this is not in any way a criticism of your site, but instead a reflection of the fact that Wikipedia is not a directory service. That aside, you are certainly welcome to contribute to articles. (While you mentioned you have certain restrictions based on your contract with About.com, that should not keep you from editing other subjects for example.) Cheers! --Ckatzchatspy 03:49, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
