User talk:Clionescu

External link on Freemasonry
I removed the link you added on Freemasonry because it fails the guideline for external links. Also, I notice that your username (Clionescu) is simular to the name of the editor of the magazine you were linking to (Claudiu Ionescu). If you indeed are the editor, you ought to read the guideline on conflict of interest. If you still think your link ought to be included, please raise the issue on the discussion page for the article. Thank you. WegianWarrior 09:12, 2 May 2007 (UTC)


 * In addition to the EL and possible COI issues that WegianWarrior brings up, I would also like to explain another factor that makes us remove your link... those of us who work on the Freemasonry article have long had a consensus that we should not link to jurisdictional or lodge specific material... unless it is notabable in some unique way... and to be honest no Masonic magazine (no matter how well written or informative it may be) is really all that notable. Every Masonic jurisdiction has a magazine. If we linked to your magazine, we would have to link to hundreds of others.  I hope you would agree that doing so would make the external links section of the article increadibly long and unwieldy.  So, unless you can show that your magazine is unique, and that there is a real reason to include a link to your magazine, the rest of us will continue to delete the link.  It isn't personal.
