Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for

Jamie, I looked at the External Linking Guidelines and rule 4 states that you should add: "Sites with other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article, such as reviews and interviews." Please explain what I did wrong, I don't want to get off on the wrong foot with anyone here, and I will gladly listen to anything you have to offer. AlexPBenes ( talk) 15:16, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See
the external links guideline and
spam guideline for further explanations. 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 rather than re-adding it. Thank you. --

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to
Monster Energy. 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.

Blogs are indeed generally to be avoided, though there are some exceptions.
You were above a couple of times warned, which was unresponded to, and the whole series of edits seemed mainly to be to include links to this site only, and the whole of your edits seemed promotional. Therefor all was reverted. For the majority of the external links, we are not a linkfarm, nor an internet directory.
The inclusion of the drink may have been true, but it was uncited, so that was reverted in the line of the other edits, but you can rerevert it if you do have a reliable source. Hope this explains. -- Dirk Beetstra T C 15:37, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to
talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should
sign your posts by typing four
tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --
