I add an external link to the Chicken, Alaska page and it keeps getting deleted. You suggest that it is "promotional" purposes!? I submit to you the two external links on that page now are purely promotional to those businesses! My external link, chickenminer.com, has many great photographs of the Chicken, Alaska area. It also shows old historic photographs and the active mining community. I believe this link is of great value. Chickenmusher (talk) 20:20, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hello! External links are quickly becoming a problem on Wikipedia. Specifically, the link you have added apears to be a personal website, which is discouraged.  Please see the external links guidelines for more information.  It appears you may have a conflict of interest in adding this link, and Wikipedia does not want to become a linkfarm.  If you need further help, please leave a message on my talk page. Happy editing!--12 N oo n 20:32, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
