[edit] Ignore last speedy notice
It would appear someone mistagged the page. I've removed the speedy tag, although you should still make sure the article meets our standard for biographies. Best, --Bfigura (talk) 21:28, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] April 2008
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Gail Gaymer Martin do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bblogspot\.com' (link(s): http://carolannerhardt.blogspot.com/2008/01/author-interview-with-gail-gaymer.html) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thorougly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creators copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! XLinkBot (talk) 21:53, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Link Deletions
While I understand that you don't want anyone to "promote" such places, I do not belong to any of these blogs and was not trying to promote them. They are "Reference" links of interviews. I've already read several pages worth of author pages here and read several of the Help sections, and others such as the Wikipedia:BIO, Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons and others PRIOR to creating the page. So I truly am not trying to be rude, but I don't see the problem and I apologize. Also, the article is not about myself, it is a woman from our writers group which I have not "promoted" in any way here yet since I haven't even created my user page yet. --KD8CMV (talk) 22:09, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
