Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Tomato sauce. 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. Toddst1 (talk) 17:35, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

There was nothing wrong with what I linked, look at the other links in the page concerned. The page I linked, showed an alternative, non-comercial example from the 'norm', or is that the issue? The external links on that page are, essentially, spam, by the above definition, in your template, cut and paste. Jeez, so much for free speech and difference of opinion. P.S. I appreciate wikipedia spam policy, but this doesn't even come close to violating it. All I did was find a decent site, and after, previously exaiming wikipedia, felt that (it-wikipedia), was lacking in reasonably suitiable examples, or that the page, in general, lacked in alternative viewpoints. My aplogises for participating in the wikipedia experience. The mass media is correct, wikipedia is dominated by a miniority, what a joke. WATCH HOW FAST THIS POST IS DELETED, that in itself is proof. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amisomeone (talk • contribs) 17:56, 23 February 2008

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as in User talk:Toddst1, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address 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. Toddst1 (talk) 18:08, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
