Links

Please stop adding external links to disambiguation pages. If you want to write about the subject in question on wikipedia, write a proper separate article. Keep in mind only articles about sufficiently notable websites will be accepted, see WP:WEBSITE. --fvw* 11:58, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Even without the external link, it isn't suitable content. Also, please read up on the three revert rule. --fvw* 12:02, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Please explain how it is unsuitable content? Also, let me understand, that under the 3RR I cannot revert the page but multiple users CAN perform the revert?

We are writing an encyclopedia here, based on content, not on links to external sites. Disambiguation pages link to wikipedia pages where there are more of the same subject with the same name (as here). They do not link to external sites.

3RR is a hard rule, one editor should not revert more than 3 times on the same page in 24 hours. If that editor is reverted by multiple editors, then that means that there are concerns with the edits, and that they need to be discussed first before being applied again. If this would concern only two editors who revert each other, then it applies to both editors. I hope this explains. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 12:52, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
