[edit] Blog links on Homeopathy

Heya. We've been removing the blog links you've repeatedly added to this article. This isn't because we necessarily disagree with their content, but because blogs are not considered reliable sources, nor are they appropriate for external links. Please ask on Talk:Homeopathy if you have any questions. Cheers, Skinwalker 13:34, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] November 2007

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, one or more of the external links you added to the page Astragalus membranaceus 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, then 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. Thank you. I see you've been warned of this before. Please note that blogs are specifically mentioned as links that should not be placed in the external links section. On a further note, given a lack of peer-reviewed sources, a statement like 'it is reputed to' is adequate, since we can't say 'it does' but we do have a source supporting this use.
