[edit] November 2007

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles, as you did to Dunk (footwear). Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Dekisugi (talk) 12:00, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Please do not add commercial material to Wikipedia, as you did to Nike Skateboarding. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. Dekisugi (talk) 12:00, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Nike Skateboarding. 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.

{{helpme}} I would like to contribute to wiki as my site has lots of info that is not on here... How can i legally put info here without it gettin deleted and recieve proper credit for my work without spamming.

The external links guidelines ask that no one add links to their own web site, no matter how good the site is. If you believe that your web site truly does meet the guideline for reliable sources and is a valid source of useful information, you can introduce it on the article's talk page, and see if any other users agree that it should be used as a reference on an article. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 12:43, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

I reviewed your contributions and checked out your web site. I don't think it would meet the reliable sources guidelines; it appears to be a blog with a lot of advertising content, and both of those are problems. You should just accept that Wikipedia isn't going to be a good place to promote your web site, and if you want to help improve articles about footwear, you should do so by adding reliable content, not links. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 12:46, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
