[edit] List of chess resources

Wikipedia is not a repository of links. Because these links might be interesting I've added them to the "External links" section of the Chess article. CG 14:18, September 7, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. I work a lot on chess articles, but relevant resources can go into the External links sections of the related articles or can be put on Wikipedia:Wikiproject Chess. Wikipedia is not a collection of links. Quale 20:14, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for not telling me, you listed the page here for deletion, Cedar-Guardian! Very nice of you, but then your style is not my style, whatever... There are a lot of pages like the one we are talking about... "Delete, delete, delete... " but - what's the matter? Can somebody tell me precisely? It says Wikipedia is not a mere repository of links. And the policy page says why: "Excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia." Tell me what's wrong about having special pages for this purpose. And if you give reasons for deletions don't come me with "redundant" or "not notable." That's totally stupid here. Doesn't apply, think better. Ben ^T/_{C 15:52, September 9, 2005 (UTC)}
