Please do not place the link to your site at the top of external links. Do you think you're more important than the State Department? I won't revert you outright but I strongly advise you read WP:SPAM before continuing. - BanyanTree 12:57, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

I had not realized that you were adding your link to every refugee-related article. I have reverted you everywhere except at Asylum in the United States, which appears to be the most relevant to your organization. If someone else thinks that another article would benefit from a link to your organization, they will do so but please do not continue adding links yourself. - BanyanTree 13:03, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Dear Administrator,

Where did the original Political Asylum page go? The link to our nationally recognized agency was originally included on that page. What happened? Why didn't you keep the links when revising the entries for Political Asylum? It's quite frustrating. Many asylum applicants and immigration attorneys did benefit from the way the page was originally structured. And now you're reverting the changes I had proposed. Do you really believe that asylum-related information on our website (http://www.pards.org) is not relevant for these discussions? Thank you.

Dear Sir, Political asylum is a redirect to Right of asylum, and has been since May of this year. If you are are referring to your addition to Right of asylum, I removed your link. Wikipedia practice is to include only external links that are highly relevant to the scope of the article. Right of asylum covers the concept since the Middle Ages, including that of sanctuary in holy places, for the entire world, while your site appears to specialize in current U.S. asylum law and thus covers only a small fraction of the ambit of the article. I have left your link on asylum in the United States as being relevant to the scope of that article. Note that Wikipedia articles are aimed at a general audience and should not be structured to benefit a smaller target audience. If you are a nationally known organization, you can rest assured that someone else will reference your organization in due course in other articles. Thank you, BanyanTree 14:57, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
