User talk:Chemical Heritage

Welcome

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

If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write {{helpme}} below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia.

Thank you for the message on my talk page. While I am not doubting the claims you make about the purpose of Chemical Heritage, we work hard at Wikipedia to make our articles as comprehensive and complete as possible. If there is information missing from Wikipedia's Aluminium article, I encourage you to add to the article itself, rather than simply adding a link to that information. If the link does not contain information in the article, then it serves no purpose. All this is laid out in our guidelines on external links. I encourage you to familiarize yourself with these guidelines and also with our guidelines on conflict of interest - your username and message to me suggests you are affiliated with the website you are linking to.

Finally, the fact that this site was recently spammed across multiple Wikipedia articles by now-blocked User:Christine1107 makes it a particularly sensitive link to be adding to articles. Thanks, Gwernol 16:19, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
