Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]You have received these suggestions because we are currently running a study to see if SuggestBot is helpful for newly registered Wikipedia editors. Normally SuggestBot only makes suggestions for users who ask for them explicitly on the SuggestBot request page. We will not post suggestions on your talk page again unless you ask for them. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find a complete consent form with contact information on the SuggestBot Study page.
SuggestBot picks the articles you might be interested in based on the articles you've edited and using a number of different techniques: following links from them to other articles, matching articles based on their content, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedia users. It tries to recommend only articles that others have marked as needing work, such as stub articles that need to be made longer, clean-up articles that need writing help, and so on. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you choose to participate we encourage you to leave feedback on these suggestions, which you can most easily do here by editing your user talk page. We'll stop by later to read them.
Regards, Nettrom (talk), project researcher and SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 20:07, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Novangelis. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Hemolytic-uremic syndrome, because to me it seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

- Please read WP:ELNO. We are not a collection of external links. Thanks Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 15:40, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
- We still aren't, 24 months later. If you continue to add links to communities, you may be blocked. However, thanks for undoing some vandalism that lasted for over two years. Graham87 15:48, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- The reason you haven't had too many complaints about your link additions is because the pages you've been adding them to aren't well-watched by medical editors, precisely because they're about such rare diseases. The links you've added violate point #10 of the guideline on external Links normally to be avoided, along with the prohibition about external links to forums on the medical manual of style. Since you seem to be affiliated with RareConnect, you appear to have a conflict of interest and shouldn't really be directly adding the links anyway; I'd suggest starting a discussion at the WikiProject Medicine talk page if you'd like further opinions about the links you're adding.

Rob, I too feel that these links are not suitable for Wikipedia. You can help people with rare diseases by ensuring that the information they read on Wikipedia is factually accurate and easy to read. Continuing to disregard the warnings above will lead to your account being blocked. JFW | T@lk 19:41, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
