Hi. I removed your link to the California Association of Legal Investigators for the following reasons: 1) If we were to include all of the local and state associations worldwide it would take up more room then the article itself. 2) The consensus some time ago was to include only National and International Associations 3) Wikipedia quality guidelines. I removed the link to 2 other associations because the pages were not in English, links to those associations should be placed in the French version of Wikipedia. I also removed the article you posted on Kate Warne, the first female Private Investigator. I believe including a link to the page you created on her is sufficient and keeps the page on private investigators within Wikipedia quality guidelines. Thanks PeetMoss 17:32, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of National Council of Investigative and Security Services

An editor has nominated National Council of Investigative and Security Services, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/National Council of Investigative and Security Services and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.

[edit] copyvio

I have noticed that for all the articles you've created, you merely copied and pasted from a different website. That violates copyright issues and puts Wikipedia is a dangerous situation. Kingturtle (talk) 13:47, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
