Links
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Papier-mâché. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. --Ronz (talk) 21:24, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
{{helpme}}talk The two web site links I put on the papier mache are useful to others because they show current modern use of papier mache in carnival arts, which is it's main use in modern times especially in Italy and here on the Isle of Wight. They are not spam sites, but have useful articles and photographs of the methods of producing large scale papier mache carnival art. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bloodofeve (talk • contribs) 21:37, 14 January 2008
- Can you provide the links to the actual articles, rather than just to the main site? Those would be much more acceptable for use. --Ronz (talk) 22:02, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
bloodofeveYes I can the link to how Italian Maschere art is made is this link http://www.viareggiocarnival.co.uk/theart.html and the link to the photograph album of this art is this http://www.viareggiocarnival.co.uk/gallery.html The Ryde Carnival site links need to be checked , they seem to be missing I will check with their web committee. The Ryde carnival link is a non flash photo album if I remember rightly. Bloodofeve (talk) 22:10, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
bloodofeve The two ryde carnival links had moved and are http://www.rydecarnival.co.uk/Photoalbums/Trafalgar200/index.html and http://www.rydecarnival.co.uk/Photo20albums/CarnivalFloat2005/index.html Bloodofeve (talk) 22:17, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

- http://www.rydecarnival.co.uk/Photo20albums/CarnivalFloat2005/index.html doesn't work for me. I suggest you start a discussion on Talk:Papier-mâché that includes the links and why you think they're useful. --Ronz (talk) 01:00, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
