Hello. I've removed advertising from the page AA Milne - please try not to use Wikipedia from promotional purposes. Articles which are clearly advertising a product or service are likely to be removed, and links to websites which are either of a commercial or otherwise questionable nature (especially links to porn sites) are liable for removal. Please see the guidelines and policy on adverts, commercial and personal website links before adding any further material of this nature to Wikipedia.

Linking to private websites - especially blogs like MySpace and video hosting sites like YouTube will normally be removed. Links to unofficial messageboards are at the discretion of editors and administrators, but generally links to sites with less than 500 registered users, where there is little activity and/or of a questionable nature are normally removed.
