Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. The links you added to the page Knowledge management have been removed. Please do not add commercial links—or links to your own private websites—to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links. See the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. --AbsolutDan (talk) 01:38, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Hello - in response the message you left on my talk page, I removed the link for a couple different reasons. First, it was the only edit that I saw under your username. Wikipedia has had a real problem lately with people creating accounts just to add links to a website that they like or are affiliated with.
- I also removed the link because it doesn't serve as a citation for any of the content in the article. This doesn't really help Wikipedia, as WP is in need of more content, not more external links. AS the WP project is aiming for a print version, I hope you can understand that External links are not very helpful to an article.
- You mention that you do some work for DMOZ. In many cases when there are too many external links on a page, replacing those links with a single link to a directory like dmoz has been a successful and encouraged procedure. Is there an appropriate category on dmoz that you could add to the article perhaps?
- Lastly, you were right about the Canadian institute link. I have removed it along with some other unnecessary links. The only reason I didn't remove it before was that it was already in place when I started watching this article recently.
- If you still feel strongly about the inclusion of your link, guidelines recommend that you mention the link on the article's talk page and allow other editors to discuss whether or not to include it. This creates a consensus, which is a major part of the Wikipedia editing process.
- Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns --AbsolutDan (talk) 13:02, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Perfect! I'll make the change to the article shortly. Thanks! --AbsolutDan (talk) 17:01, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
