I once made a link from a mention of a leading kit car manufacturer to their web site.
As usual with Slashdot discussions about Wikipedia, there are many stories of people who got reverted and rarely any links to the edit history.
In this case, I suspect that this was your first and only edit on Wikipedia and that possibly you are affiliated with this "leading kit manufacturer". My experience is that if I bother to check out external links added as first-time edits, they look like link spam 99% of the time; that's why they are often reverted immediately.
In case you are curious about what makes something look like link spam: the same editor added links to the same website to 10 other articles, or the text with the links reads like an advert ("..is a leading manufacturer of high quality $product"), or the landing page is a web shop, or the landing page is a content-scraping farm plastered with ads.
I have done many such reverts myself (no, not an admin), although I am not very active anymore, for exactly the reasons mentioned in TFS: got older, got married, too many other things to deal with in life.
