Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Shelta. 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. Melcous (talk) 11:08, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Chris, thanks for your message on my talk page. I appreciate you taking the time to explain and it sounds like the link would be helpful. Can I ask you to explain that on the talk page of the article? You can use the Template:Request Edit if you like, it is specifically for this purpose - where you have a conflict of interest and so the proposed edit just needs to be reviewed by someone else before it is added.
