Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to British Freedom Party. Wikipedia is not a collection 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 attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Sparthorse (talk) 22:55, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I copied how the links were applied on the BNP website. Somebody must be wrong?¬¬¬¬

Which edits in particular are you disputing?

I copied the links in exactly the way they were done on the British National party wiki page. They can't both be wrong? I'd like to know as I haven't been editing wiki pages very long.Greenpenwriter (talk) 17:29, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As I noted when I reverted your changes, please read

WP:EL. In particular the section "Links normally to be avoided" includes: "10. Links to social networking sites (such as Myspace and Facebook), chat or discussion forums/groups (such as Yahoo! Groups), Twitter feeds, Usenet newsgroups or e-mail lists." Note also the section titled "Minimize the number of links" that says: "More than one official link should be provided only when the additional links provide the reader with unique content and are not prominently linked from other official websites. " Since the official website of the BFP does prominently link to the Facebook and Youtube sites, these links should not be included in the Wikipedia article. The fact that the BNP article doesn't follow these rules does not mean the BFP article is exempt from them, obviously. Sparthorse (talk) 17:58, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply

But the BNP article obviously is?Greenpenwriter (talk) 18:44, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not in the slightest. These links should be removed from that article too. I'll do that now. Sparthorse (talk) 18:45, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I shall endeavour to remember what I have learnt to date. I hope my other minor edits have been satisfactory so far?(Greenpenwriter (talk) 19:34, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:REffleytemple.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:REffleytemple.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Hi, Thank you, for uploading this file.

However, as part of ongoing efforts to ensure all media on English Wikipedia is correctly licensed and attributed it would be appreciated if you were able to confirm some details,

If it's your own work, please include {{

own}}, amend the {{information}} added by a third party, and change the license to an appropriate "self" variant. You can also add |claimed=yes to the {{media by uploader}} tag if it is present to indicate that you've acknowledged the image, and license shown (and updated the {{information

}} where appropriate).

If it's not your own work please provide as much sourcing/authorship information as you are able to.

This will assist those reviewing the many many "free" images on commons that have not yet been transfered to Commons.Sfan00 IMG (talk) 13:28, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
