- Links are fully compliant with above stated links - aggressive editing of external links needs to be unilateral - in this instance the "official" airbus industries link must also be removed... how far must censorship go? — Preceding unsigned comment added by TwirlTour (talk • contribs) 22:05, 18 January 2009
- While you're reading the above policies, please also have a look at WP:AGF. Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 23:39, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. One or more of the external links you added in this edit to Airbus A320 family do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. You may wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. – iridescent 22:15, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?
Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, celebrity or other well-known individual, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
- Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?
Probably not. See WP:FAQ/Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.
- What can I do now?
You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:
- Add the text
{{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}}on your user talk page. - Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
- Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

- You have very few contributions and all are adding spam links. It would be better to start a new account while remembering our policy concerning spam —Sandahl (talk) 23:42, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:
I TRULY wanted to give the user the ability to experience something they generally cannot. Does anybody here know where the ditching switch is located on an Airbus 320 - the one that is purported to have saved the lives of some if not all the 155 souls on board the US Airways flight? It's on the overhead panel, first box forward, third row aft, right side - a single guarded pushbutton switch - viewable on the only link I ever posted - and nowhere else to my knowledge.
I understand the posting behavior is something undesirable, and for that, please forgive me - I realize that ignorance is not an excuse, but the rapidity with with this ban occurred is mindboggling, and really a little disappointing. I have no specific guidance how to avoid future banning, but lots of vague advice on things to read that sort of generally suggest I did something wrong in the eyes of the moderators of wikipedia - I still do not know why the link was banned in the first place, was it because of the content of the link, the branding on the pano in the link, the fact that the link requires flash and is a rich media content, the use of a ™ on the end of TwirlTour™ in the link, the poor choice of a username?
At this point it's been an unfortunate voyage into Wikipedia.org; I feel I have quite a bit to offer the wiki community, specifically to those with disabilities, but feel strangely unwelcome. I would encourage looking at this differently and not just with a typical response given to the spammed.TwirlTour (talk) 02:56, 19 January 2009 (UTC)Decline reason:
