Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Andrei the Fish has been reverted.
Your edit here to Andrei the Fish was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3367347587153&set=a.2317259655611.138196.1373081529&type=1&theater) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. 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, constructive, 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) 06:38, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at Andrei the Fish

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for taking the time to contribute.

I'm a bot designed by another Wikipedia editor, and I'm here to help you with our deletion process. I noticed that while working on an article recently, you removed a speedy deletion template that tagged it for deletion. Don't get discouraged! Deletion discussions happen on Wikipedia all the time.

If you don't want the article to get deleted, please click here.

The link will take you to the talk page, where you can explain why the article should be kept. If you have any questions about this or need help with editing, you can ask at the Help desk.

We really hope you'll stick around to help make Wikipedia better! Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 06:48, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Andrei the Fish. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 06:49, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

• I have deleted the article. I assume it's a story you have written, perhaps about a pet fish you had owned. I am afraid Wikipedia is not the appropriate place for such stories; you can instead post it to fictionpress.com or anoher story-writing site. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 06:56, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
• If it's an actually published book, then please see the notability guidelines. (Plus, you claim that it can be found at Penguin Books Australia. No, it can't; plus, you got the website wrong.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 07:05, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

I am afraid this is not possible; Wikipedia is not a personal website. I can recover the deleted article to a subpage of your user space; this is the most I can do for you. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 07:25, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

• It's at User:Skwysh/Andrei the Fish, and in about a week I am going to delete it again. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 07:30, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
