Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory 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 exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Lolcat. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Kerotan ^{Leave Me a Message} Have a nice day :) 07:13, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Loyolabenson, I removed your initial external link additions because (1) You cited false sources for your link, most likely copied from the other well-known links. Lying about your own site's notoriety to get a link from Wikipedia, and hoping no one notices, is not a good way to start out here. While some of the sources listed on Lolcat are in need of updating, there are other cited sources (from Time Magazine, Houston Chronicle, etc) that validate the existence of the currently accepted links. Instead of adding new links, perhaps update the existing citations that are missing or are broken links. (2) Your site does not even appear in a common google search for related keywords (3) Your site content includes a large amount of advertisements (which could be considered objectionable, see WP:EL#Links_normally_to_be_avoided) and images that are simply copied from other well-known sites. While some of the links do indeed have advertisements, they are listed because of mentions from established, respected news publications. (4) The other contributors above have rightly reverted your multiple subsequent attempts at spamming the external links section, and your actions amount to vandalism.

re:Hello

I direct you at the note under the external links section on the Lolcats page, "Please review WP:EL and discuss on talk before adding anything else here." also I didn't bust you for link spam like your other edits, the warning was for removing the whole external link section, which is hardly constructive.--Kerotan ^{Leave Me a Message} Have a nice day :) 05:00, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
