Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.--Hu12 (talk) 05:50, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Hu, The links I added each containt the actual body of work on the related page. It complies with Wikipedias link guideline stating that a link can be added to "An article about a book, a musical score, or some other media should link to a site hosting a copy of the work". I don't understand why you undid my revision, where others linking to the copy of work are ok. The version of the stories I linked to were a bit different then versions of stories previosly linked, and some didn't have the actual story linked to at all. I know Wiki uses nofollow on its links, and I didn't do it for search engine rankings, but to share the stories with others. Also, how can a site with a collection of 1100 free stories for children, not be appropriate to add for Children's literatrue. I strongly feel that your removal of the links is unjustified, and improperly based on the assumption I wanted to boost search ranks. Gregbr2000 (talk) 15:58, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
