User talk:Deli nk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sorry. Don't know how to talk to other users on Wikipedia.
Look, I am adding links to a site I'm a member of and it is important to me that the links stay there. I beileve the site is very useful and informative. Hell, check it out yourself.
- Please click on these links, WP:EL and WP:SPAM, and read guidlines for the addition of external links to Wikipedia articles, particularly the section on what not to add. Deli nk 19:22, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Salvia divinorum forums
In general, links to discussion forums are considered inappropriate for Wikipedia articles. That line in WP:EL makes an exception for forums that are themselves the subject of the article. For example, the article about the web forum YTMND could have a link to the YTMND. So I think the links I removed should probably go, but I won't revert. Deli nk 19:31, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

OK thanks. I misread what it was saying as "shares the same subject", but scanning it again I can see your interpretation is strictly correct. So in that case I'd maybe argue more generally for exception, e.g. along WP:IAR lines or some such. The forums are part of the overall Salvia phenomena, worthy of inclusion on that basis perhaps.

- Ok. I'll leave it up to you and others that have put so much effort into maintaining that article. Deli nk 15:02, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
