  1. Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Kalorama, Washington, D.C. do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection 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, 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. KnightLago (talk) 18:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
  2. Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Tenleytown. 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.

  3. This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
    The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Mount Pleasant, Washington, D.C., you will be blocked from editing. KnightLago (talk) 18:43, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | rangeblocks | unblock | contribs | deleted contribs) has asked to be unblocked, but an administrator has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock request while you are blocked.

Request reason: "Look, These links all lead to the same website - of photos of streescapes and architecture in Washibgton,D.C.. I have found numerous examples of personal web sites on Wiki,say for instance the link to an art photo gallery on the Adams Morgan page, which includes info regarding liscensing of said photos. These photos are diectly pertinent to the subject under discussion,and better than many I have seen on Wiki. Yes, there are links to my website- once again a collection of photos of antiques and collectibles- as well as a prominently displayed "Washington D.C. Photos" link which leads, of all places, to a list of photos of neighborhoods in Washington D.C. Granted, there a whole four (4) items for sale on my website, but it's main purpose is simply that of a collection of photos of things and places. I enjoy photography, I have a hobby or two, and I enjoy working on the computer. So if you feel that photos of the neighborhoods under discussion are inappropriate under these circumstances, well, I won't post anymore links to these photos...Dave"

Decline reason: "If you want to help Wikipedia by releasing some of your photos under the GFDL and uploading them so they can be added to articles, that would be extremely helpful. Adding links to your own web site- especially if you are doing so on multiple pages- is in violation of our spam guidelines. — FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 00:54, 23 March 2008 (UTC)"
