- The link you inserted http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habitat_for_Humanity_International&action=history
Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the external links you added to the page Habitat for Humanity International do not comply with our guidelines for external links. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. — Indon (reply) — 17:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Ditto--you inserted the same link on Campus Crusade's page and several other ministries. Please do not use wikipedia to linkspam. Thanks. --Sixtrojans 18:45, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
March 2007[edit]
Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Christianity. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since 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.

Adding links to multiple pages indicates you are promoting rather than informing and it simply will not be allowed. See Wikipedia:Spam. If you feel your link provides relevant information, chose ONE page to which you want to add it, then make your case on its talk page. If you can convince an administrator to add the link, you will be in a much better position. You are not alone in this; see User_talk:Pollinator#.22Inappropriate_Links.22.Pollinator 16:43, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
