I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

somerset3d.co.uk edit
I note that the focus of your contributions to Wikipedia is to add links to www.somerset3d.co.uk to various articles. Could I ask what, if any, is your connection to that website? Thanks. Adambro (talk) 11:29, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
I reverted your addition of an external link from Somerset to your photos site. I don't know if you are aware of the discussion about the multiple additions of these links at Spam Blacklist - perhaps you could participate there to get a general consensus rather than lots of individual additions and removals of these links.— Rod talk 11:57, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
November 2009 edit
Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Chipping Sodbury. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because 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. The only contributions you make are to add this site. Stop now before you get banned. Simple Bob (talk) 23:06, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
Blocked edit
{{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:35, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
The Captain (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
How can photographs relating to an article be deamed as innapropriate. In fact, don't bother unblocking. I thought the whole idea of Wikipedia was to share information but, it appears I am wrong. The Somerset3d website is not a commercial website nor do I get anything financial from it. It is just a hobby. There are many links from my website to Wikipedia so I see it as a two way thing. But no more. From now on I will not be linking anything from my site to this one. I'll rely on websites such as BBC Somerset and BBC Wiltshire along with other local websites to find my site and enjoy the pictures. I read reports that many editors are leaving Wikipedia. I wonder why
Decline reason:
I am declining your request for unblock because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
- the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
- the block is no longer necessary because you
- understand what you have been blocked for,
- will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
- will make useful contributions instead.
Please read our guide to appealing blocks for more information. Syrthiss (talk) 13:53, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
