Donald E. Wilkes, Jr
It's fine (as far as I can see) to link to articles written by Wilkes, but don't add a link to Wilkes' personal page each time you add a link to one of his articles. That not the way it's done on Wikipedia. Thanks. Ward3001 (talk) 02:06, 9 September 2008 (UTC)


 * One more point: Don't mark such edits as minor. Read Help:Minor edit. Only spelling and grammatical corrections, or re-arranging text without changing meaning, are considered minor edits. Adding an external link is not a minor edit. On Wikipedia it is considered rude to mark major edits as minor, as some editors ignore minor edits because they assume nonthing substantive is changed. You might want to click "My preferences" at the top of the page, click the "Editing" tab, then uncheck "Mark all edits minor by default". Thanks. Ward3001 (talk) 02:11, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
