Happy editing! Jaranda 00:49, 23 May 2006 (UTC) Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Misplaced Pages. Misplaced Pages is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. Jaranda 00:49, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
Sorry! Can you please read my addition to this page. http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Fraser_Cain Nobody seems to have read it. UniverseToday 00:58, 23 May 2006 (UTC)UT
Somebody edited that link changing fraser_cain to Frasie_Crane. I've changed it back.
Request for investigation
I've posted a Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_investigation#New_requests regarding your incessant linkspamming. I'm noticing you so you can post whatever you think would be appropriate in your defense. - Reaverdrop (talk/nl/wp:space) 03:02, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Response
Why are there external link sections in most of the articles if nobody is allowed to add links or "linkspam" as you obnoxiously like to describe it? Every link I have added is relevant and useful. Investigate away but I think most Wikipedians have better things to do with their time than pick on newcomers over such silly claims. I do not have to provide a defence as I have done nothing wrong. If I am guilty of some sort of breach in Wikiquette by adding links then I daresay most Wikipedians are also guilty and the charge must be expanded to include just about everyone. Your obsession with nitpicking on such an order of magnitude is reflective of your article quality. You would never get published in any respectable magazine requiring talent so you choose to make yourself feel a big man by repudiating others. In short you need to get a life and possibly a girlfriend.
In summary, no rules have been broken and nobody has been hurt. This is just a time wasting exercise. While cruising around getting the feel of the place I contributed links to a few pages. Now I am starting to write articles. I hope the investigators will treat this churlish claim by Reaverdrop with the contempt and ridicule it so thoroughly deserves. In the time I have wasted responding to this person I could have made headway into my second article. Now I'm not sure I'll even bother. No doubt I will have to go undo the vandalism commited by this guy. UniverseToday 06:11, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sure it's upsetting to be called into question like this, but I believe your tone is entirely inappropriate. See WP:AGF and WP:NPA. Please desist. --William Pietri 06:07, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Writing has no tone. It can bring about revolutions and topple nations but it never has a tone. I apologise about the personal remarks. They were uncalled for. But so was the term "linkspamming". Nobody likes being accused of something they haven't done. Adding links is not a crime. Wasting peoples time is. UniverseToday 06:11, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
