Hello, I'm DVdm. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Mathematics because it seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thanks.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Areas of mathematics with this edit. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links may include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated, 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 article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. DVdm (talk) 10:31, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Lists of mathematics topics with this edit. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you. DVdm (talk) 10:33, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing, because it is clear that your only purpose here is to add spam links to your website into articles. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Request reason:

I have read the external links guideline. Now I have got your point. Pankaj Jyoti Mahanta (talk) 10:49, 6 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

On the basis of what you have said about your future editing intentions, I have unblocked you. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 23:13, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Two questions:

If you are unblocked, what types of edits do you plan to make?
Do you agree not to add any more links to gonitsora.com from any articles?

I have edited some articles in Assamese Wikipedia (http://as.wiki.x.io/) and translated three or four articles from English Wikipedia. I had another account, but forgot the password, therefore I have created this one. Anyways, I will not edit that much in English Wikipedia. May be one or two paragraphs in a month.
I added some links in the external link section because these are very rare and extensive interviews with eminent scientists. Okay, I will not add any more links.

But I have a question. Can I add reference source to any Wikipedia article from this website? Gonit Sora is an online magazine devoted to Mathematics and Science. You can check it here: http://mpe.dimacs.rutgers.edu/magazines/ Pankaj Jyoti Mahanta (talk) 21:27, 6 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No, as that is the reason you were blocked. We don't permit single purpose link-adding accounts. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:59, 6 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I will not add any more links. Pankaj Jyoti Mahanta (talk) 11:42, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@JamesBWatson:- would you object to an unblock? PhilKnight (talk) 14:56, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@PhilKnight: In light of what has been said above, I have unblocked. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 23:13, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, after being blocked, the very first thing you did was to re-create a deleted page full of promotional links to your business, your website, your blog, and so on. It is clear that your assurance that you "will not add any more links" is worth nothing. As you must surely have expected, I have restored the block.

I re-created my user page. Pankaj Jyoti Mahanta (talk) 17:02, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
