Linking to your website
[edit]Hi, I recently removed some links that you had added to your own website. If you think those links should be included in the articles, you might mention it on the talk pages for the articles and allow neutral parties to decide as per Wikipedia:External links#Advertising and conflicts of interest. Here's the main idea from that page:
- Due to the rising profile of Wikipedia and the amount of extra traffic it can bring a site, there is a great temptation to use Wikipedia to advertise or promote sites. This includes both commercial and non-commercial sites. You should avoid linking to a website that you own, maintain or represent, even if the guidelines otherwise imply that it should be linked. If the link is to a relevant and informative site that should otherwise be included, please consider mentioning it on the talk page and let neutral and independent Wikipedia editors decide whether to add it. This is in line with the conflict of interest guidelines. Note that since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links may not alter search engine rankings.
Best wishes on your wikipedia editing. LloydSommerer 20:01, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
