May 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Free ds roms has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bwordpress\.com (links: http://erpalm.files.wordpress.com/2006/11/nitendo-ds.jpg, http://erpalm.files.wordpress.com/2006/11/nitendo-ds.jpg (redirect from http://erpalm.files.wordpress.com/2006/11/nitendo-ds.jpg)). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. an image file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 10:47, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Free ds roms

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Free ds roms, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

WP:NOT, Manual subsection

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Deletion of Free DS Roms

Hi I'd like you to reconsider the deletion of this post. I am just trying to help people who have the R4 Card as there is nothing on wikipedia about it. What can I do to make you reconsider, I am new here and this was my first article.

Do I need to provide a more indepth analysis of the R4 Card and how to get Free Ds Roms?

Thanks for your time

I have checked the article twice now to see if there is any way to rewrite it for Wikipedia, but i am afraid that there is little chance to do as such. Par WP:NOTHOWTO wikipedia's should not be manuals or how-to on how to do various things. Also, even if you could rewrite it, there would probably be an issue with downloading copyrighted games being illegal in the US where the servers are hosted.

Is there nothing you can do? Well, MAYBE. Wikipedia has several sister project, one of them being Wikihow. Wikihow is a project especially for how-to's such as yours. While i am in no way familiar with the guidelines at that project you may be able to add the how-to there. Just be careful with copyright issues, as this download site seems pretty close to violating copyright laws. Perhaps it would be better to leave out those links to actual download sites.
