listings flagged for external links or contact info

[bashort]

I just got 24 listing flagged for having external links or contact info, I have looked at them and they have no external links or contact info that I can find

But they all do have something like this in them

"2" Dual-Wheel Plate Caster #385-4403" and as these are really old listings they originally had a phone number in the listing but it was removed by ebay long ago.

Presumably the bots think that is a phone number, even though it has no area code. I would try leaving the part number out of the Title, and move it to Item Specifics under "MPN" or "Part Number."

Are you copying anything from another site and pasting it in the description?

Sometimes that will pick up code that you can't see unless you look at the HTML.

If you're going to copy and paste, I'd copy and paste to a text file.  I've never had problems copying and pasting from a text file.

Listing 361578677397 for those wheel castors looks pretty rough - all broken images and no description. It's worth going through these older listings to make sure they're not displaying like this one:
