A scar on Wikipedia
I shall overlook that SCAR-MarBIN: Antarctic Marine Biodiversity Information Network was essentially just an advert because I think it may be a Wiki-worthy subject. However you are going to have to do a bit more work that just copy-and-paste your website: -- RHaworth 08:50, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * the title looks ugly, I suggest simply SCAR Marine Biodiversity Information Network with redirects from any alternative titles
 * in Wikipedia we link a term the first time we use not every time!
 * also we are very introspective, internal links are always preferred and external links are banished to the end of the article.

Thanks you for your comments. The title you suggest unfortunately does not reveal that the project is about Antarctic: most users probably don't know that SCAR stands for Scientific Committtee on Antarctic Research. I can delete any links you judge are not worthy and try and add as far as possible internal rather than external links.
