Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to SOCKS. 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) 14:30, 28 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at SOCKS, you may be blocked from editing. Alexf^(talk) 21:08, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm an open source enthusiast and I have no commercial interests in adding projects. I saw that there was already a personal GitHub project on the SOCKS page, so I did the same. I did not read the promotional or advertising material carefully before adding it, but now I know it clearly. Thank you for pointing this out. Heiher (talk) 00:45, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
