Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Hyperspectral imaging. 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. Alexf^(talk) 15:02, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

Hello and thanks for your message on my talk page. You asked "why do you keep deleting my entry?" I didn't delete your entry - I deleted an entry added by Perception Park (talk · contribs) because it was a link to their own website which is against wikipedia's conflict of interest policy, as the message I left on their talk page said. I see that you then re-added the link and someone else deleted it. So the question would be, do you also have a conflict of interest? If you do, you should not be adding links to your own website - you can suggest them on the talk page and let someone else add them. Also, if you are the same person who previously added the link, then you should be aware of wikipedia's policy against operating multiple accounts and make sure you abide by it, because you can be blocked from editing if you are using more than one account.
