I hear you. But, is http://msdn.microsoft.com/vcsharp/ not a commercial site?
Is http://nystic.com/portal.php not a personal Web site?

[edit] Link spam

Hi - I realize including the link to your page is very important. There are a lot of people who have sites relevant to a topic and would like to have a link included in WP. However, there needs to be some sort of consensus that your site is important, encyclopedic and relevant enough that it can be included in the .NET and C# articles. The fact that it is a Wiki and uses the same software as WP is irrelevant. The fact that you think it's important is also irrelevant. I don't know in what other way I can stress that it's not up to you to insert that link.

I've added an entry to the C# discussion page [1]. Please wait until a few people give their OK for your link to be included. In the meantime, stop inserting the link. Thanks. -- klaus

If you care, a large part of the brohaha was your labeling it as spam! Perhaps if you bothered to explain initially what the standards are and why a particular link did not meet those standards, the process would go more smoothly. BTW The standard is still as clear as mud. It would seem that large commercial sites are in and small "commercial" sites are out. ---71.252.197.197
