February 2014[edit]

Hi there! I wanted to let u know that these links you're inserting into articles would probably constitute spam. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so it's generally not appropriate to insert links to directories because it makes the articles more like travel guides. With that being said though, these links might be appropriate over at our sister project Wikivoyage. If you've got any questions, u can shoot me a message at my talk page or ask it at the help desk. Thanks! Survivorfan1995 (talk) 21:28, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Fort Rucker, Fort Bragg, Luke Air Force Base, Dobbins Air Reserve Base, Maxwell Air Force Base, Bolling Air Force Base, Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Fort Campbell, Fort Benning, Fort Hood. 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 websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. EricSerge (talk) 23:10, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
