[edit] List of Tetris variants

Hi, in case you're somehow missing my edit notes repeatedly, let me point out wikipedia policy here: WP:NOT Wikipedia is not a web directory; here: WP:V entries need to be verified with independent, reliable sources; and the guideline on external links WP:EL.

The Tetris games that are of note, I have placed in the table (which your revert keeps taking back out again.) Your revert is also putting back in self-links like Tetris 2. Please be more careful, thanks! Marasmusine 07:39, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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.

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to List of Tetris variants, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia.
