Hi, the recent edit you made to Aaron Neville has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

- Hi - your recent edits to many biography pages where you merely added a link to a website were all reverted as they are considered spam and do not add any meaningful content to the articles. Please see WP:EL for information on what types of external links are allowed. SpikeJones (talk) 20:21, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing their websites from appearing on Wikipedia. richi (talk) 00:25, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

editMichelle, I'm not surprised your edits are being reverted. Most of your edits look like spam or vandalism:
- Please stop adding unencyclopedic links to your radio show's Web site.
- Please stop removing templates and tags.
- Oh, and don't forget to sign talk page comments with four squiggles, like this: ~~~~
If you do it again, you will be blocked. I'm amazed you haven't been blocked already ... richi (hello) 20:26, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Please review WP:SPAM, WP:COI, and WP:RS. If you still think a particular article would be improved by adding a link to your Web site, feel free to discuss it on the article's talk page, but you are advised not re-add links that have been removed by other editors.
- The comment about "usurp" was a message to me from another editor ... richi (hello) 23:51, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
IMDB links
editI think the best answer I can give you is that IMBD is seen as a reliable source. I'm not suggesting that your radio station isn't -- I have no idea one way or the other. Wikipedia operates on a consensus basis, so if it's not clear to editors that your links are to a reliable source, they will get removed. You can try to build consensus by discussion. Glad to see you're starting to do this ... richi (hello) 18:59, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
