User talk:TightheadProp

I like rugby, rugby, music and tv. I like a beer now and then too.

Still learning how to use the talk.

If I contribute something don't just delete it if you don't like it. Discuss it with me.

Rugbyweek

On the rugby union article it states above External Links when you edit it, <!- Please discuss on the article talk page before adding any further links here ->. That comment was place there to prevent the continual addition of external sites to the article which was out of control. A cull was decided upon. It may have been right, it may have been wrong. To overturn that you will need to reopen that discussion on the rugby talk page. If you get a couple of people to agree with you then it can be returned. As for the problems with other sites, then that is probably an argument to remove them, not reinstate another. Also a site being out of date is not a terrible problem for Wikipedia if it still generates good information. Personally I will very rarely edit any rugby articles that are current, I tend to deal with dead players and all my books are pretty much out of date. As long as they are encyclopedic. Good luck with your quest. FruitMonkey (talk) 20:26, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fruitmonkey, I did re-open the discsussion and you just deleted my links. I am copying this to the thread to re-open the debate.

Yes but the protocol is 1) open the debate 2) get your proposal approved 3) add your edit. Not add your edit and then open the debate. FruitMonkey (talk) 20:56, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
