Hello, I received two messages recently about posting articles. I honestly can't figure out what, if anything can be posted. Can you tell me whether I can post an article or not? I did and someone deleted my link because it goes to my website where the article is. I also have some links to wikpedia on some of my articles - is this allowed? Thanks, sylviadac —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sylviadac (talkcontribs)

Hi Sylviadac. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope we haven't scared you off.  :) Your links were primarily removed because of the Google AdSense ads on your site. Unfortunately the articles at Wikipedia are under constant attack from site owners who try to include their links in hopes of driving traffic to their sites. I'm not saying this is what your intention was but please try to understand this issue from Wikipedia's point of view. You are certainly welcome to add articles and content here but linking to your own sites is against the rules. Sorry your first experience here seemed a bit harsh but we're just trying to keep our articles clean. I hope you stick around.  Monkeyman(talk) 00:23, 23 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
