Dates and links

Also, please be aware of a couple things. External links should not appear in the body of an article. Exceptions are made if those links are to a sister project of Wikipedia such as Wiktionary or WikiSource. See WP:EL for info on this. Also, dates should not include the suffixes of "th", "st", etc. For more on this, see MOS:NUM. Thanks, Dismas|^(talk) 20:17, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Links in Sunny Leone

I would suggest you read Wikipedia's policy about external links and more specifically WP:NOTLINK, which states "Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files" before adding any more to the Sunny Leone article. Tabercil (talk) 15:20, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not Assuming Good Faith

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we must insist that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors[1], which you did not on http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ASunny_Leone&diff=299312013&oldid=299309198.

Sunny Leone

Just want to give you a heads-up as a frequent editor to the Sunny Leone article that it has been given a review to see if it could be called a good article. Unfortunately, it failed, but the feedback from the review is available at Talk:Sunny Leone/GA1, which gives concrete advice on how to improve the article.

March 2013

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your recent edit to List of banks in Switzerland appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article to establish notability. If you wish to create such an article, please confirm that your subject is notable according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. SummerPhD (talk) 23:53, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
