Hi there. I just want to know why my link http://www.theefnylapage.com gets deleted all the time. You say it's for promotional reasons for some reason. It's just a NONPROFIT fan site and I just want some more visitors. What is the reason? - Andreas
 * Hello Andreas, they could of been multiple reasons why your link has been removed. Usually, external links should be kept to a minimum in articles (as per WP:ELPOINTS). According to this diff, RepublicanJacobite removed the link because it was a fan page. According to WP:FANSITE, external links should not be fansites, blogs, or personal web pages. Only the appropriate website should be added by a trusted, published source. Hope this helps, if you have any more questions, please feel free to ask them on my talk page. --   Luke      (Talk)   02:59, 7 November 2011 (UTC)


 * (e/c) You couldn't have proven you are placing that link for promotional purposes better than by what your question says. It is your link and you are placing it to get visitors. We are not here for you to advertise your site. As for its removal, besides your admitted promotional basis for placing it, see WP:ELNO—especially points 1, 4 and 11.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 03:08, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
