This domain appears to be solely pushed by a single WP:SPA with zero other edits that do not involve this domain, in addition to what is presumably their IP when not signed in. --benlisquareT•C•E 16:29, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- I am new to editing this is a topic I am familiar with and am trying to document. I'm sure we can look back to the beginning of your editing history and find you only edited 2 things too. This topic is directly related to subject matter. Please stop removing it, or you can add it yourself if you want to control all the editing. Icemanld50 (talk) 16:44, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- The link pushing is certainly against policy, but the editor hadn't had a talk page warning yet, so I just gave them one. MrOllie (talk) 16:48, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- How does an editor add a subject matter link to a page if I might ask? The link is on subject matter directly related to content, helps the reader with information on the subject and is documented. Icemanld50 (talk) 16:59, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- You can find guidelines about this at WP:EL. But the short answer is: for a link like this one, you don't add it at all because Wikipedia is not a link directory. MrOllie (talk) 17:01, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- I see and yet I am looking at an external link section at the bottom of the page with relevant links. Wouldn't that qualify as the same. Icemanld50 (talk) 17:06, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- No. Local plumbers are 'relevant' to our article on plumbing. You'll note that we don't link to adverts for particular plumbers. MrOllie (talk) 17:30, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- You are correct in that normally you don't link to local plumbers, but you do however link to relevant resources and in this example that is what this is. Icemanld50 (talk) 17:57, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
