56. Wikipedians generally regard the practice of dropping links to your blog whever you can as spam.

If people were interested in your blog, they would subscribe to it. If you wish to start a discussion on the subject on this list, write an actual email about it, don't just give a link. And, when linking to your own blog, it is polite to make it clear it is yours and not something you've found that you consider interesting (yes, the domain name makes it fairly clear, but you should still make it completely clear).

PS After a quick look at the first few reasons: Not at all funny. They are the kind of bad jokes you get sent round in chain emails... And it's "Wikipedia" not "The Wikipedia".
