In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!
Mr. Butch
This sight is operational and has been made for the memorial and gathering of information regarding his parade and death. Why do you keep removing this link??
I assume you are referring to the removal of the external link to mrbutchallston.com link from Mr. Butch. This is for the reasons I provided in the edit:
1) the site is not (yet) a 'memorial/discussion page' - there is no discussion, because there is no discussion board at all:
There will be a discussion board up very soon here so you can make public comments.
2) the purpose of external links is to direct people to sites that are well-established and provide relevant information about the article in question. with regard to being well-established, the site is obviously still under construction; with regard to providing relevant information, the site does have a gallery of pics from the memorial, but so do many others (myspace, blogs, etc.).
once the discussion board is up and discussion is taking place - and/or if the photo gallery becomes definitive by the sheer number of contributions - the site may be appropriate for external linking.
if you wish to get the word out about mrbutchallston.com so that it does become a definitive site, i suggest submitting your site to some of the more well-established Mr. Butch sites out there - such as any (or all) of the myspace profiles for Mr. Butch. this profile seems to provide the most information of any of them (including galleries and links to other Mr. Butch profiles): http://www.myspace.com/mrbutchshow. (note that i am not affiliated with this site in any way)
i also suggest you read the Wiki documentation about external linking: http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:External_links

Ah yes the minor edits. I either forgot to check box the minor box or totally forgot that it even exist. I usually do it quickly to prevent edit conflict. --SkyWalker 06:41, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
