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 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. [1] MER-C 11:07, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

• Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. 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.

• Please disclose your connection with the content at the link you want to post or the company that hosts it. See WP:PAID and WP:COI. Please reply with that information here. Jytdog (talk) 18:35, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

WRT the link at balancethat.in Disclosure- I own the website that hosts the link and have authored the article present at the link. The website is non-commercial with no affiliates/clients and this is not a paid contribution. The article linked to does not include references/ citations/ endorsements/links to any individual(s)/author(s)/companies/organization(s). The link is proposed to be added for its relevance to the topic for the benefit of Wikipedia readers.

<Following COI holds upon addition of the link>

This user has publicly declared that they have a conflict of interest regarding the Wikipedia article Futures contract.

OK, so you were just spamming your website into Wikipedia. Please see notices above; that is not what WP is for. I amended the link in your statement, so it is just the domainJytdog (talk) 23:12, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

I went and posted a "conflicted edit request" on the talk page of the futures article. See Talk:Futures_contract#Link_to_an_external_website. That is how to do this, ethically. Jytdog (talk) 04:00, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
