Hello, I'm DVdm. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W204) 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 Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W204) 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) 10:11, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Mercedes-Benz A-Class 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) 10:16, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
This is your last warning; the next time you harm Wikipedia, as you did at Mercedes-Benz A-Class with this edit, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. 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.

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
