Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in ACE Ltd.. Wikipedia is not a mere directory 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 exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Abbott Laboratories, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia. Notinasnaid 20:37, 6 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It has become apparent that your account is only being used for spamming inappropriate external links or self-promotion, so it has been blocked indefinitely. Wikipedia is NOT a "repository of links" or a "vehicle for advertising".
