Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Alien Breed 3D has been reverted. Your edit here to Alien Breed 3D was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d62wpU39x5s, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdhp1KOXTqs) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. music or video) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. 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) 00:10, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Skarmory. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of Alien Breed 3D. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

 * Hi, I put the message back but without the link, as I don't understand how to do that. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by BarryGuffield (talk • contribs)
 * Hey! Sorry for the late response, but it looks good now. However, one of Wikipedia's policies is to cite reliable sources, using the citation templates (also see referencing for beginners). External links straight in the body of the article should not be used as citations, and that would also have been a primary source (linking to the game's page), which is discouraged in general. I can go on more if useful, but these are the basics and I don't want to overwhelm you. Skarmory   (talk •   contribs)  19:37, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
