Need Assistance with External Link Policy

I am trying to understand why an external link that I posed is considered SPAM while a similar link, SurgiCare, on the external links section of this article is not?

The page I linked to had very detailed information on the process both positive and negative and includes risks. I do feel that the link is relevant and informative.

I would like to make sure I follow the guidelines and stay within the boundaries in future actions, and respect the intentions of the community and Wiki overall.

Hi there, I was the editor that reverted out your changes. All your edits to-date have been advertising the one website, again and again. This is against our policy regarding spam. Here are the relevant policies to do with spam and external links. WIkipedia is an encyclopedia and not simply a collection of links, nor is it a vehicle for advertising your services, as you have. I strongly suspect surgicare probably shouldn't be in there either, unless there's extreme justification. Wikipedia is not a marketeer's battleground, neither. If you've any further questions, just ask on my talk page - Alison ☺ 21:59, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
