Hi Diane. Your account seems to only be used to add the same links again and again to the same articles (see WP:EL). These articles already have a link to HBS (which is obscure in itself and arguably non-noteable). In reverting to your version, you are removing the Reflist tags and wiping out all the references. This is not a Good Thing at all so it'd be kinda good if you didn't do this again. Thanks! - Alison ☺ 15:34, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. - Alison ☺ 05:16, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

From my talk page
You are undoubtedly the same Diane so who posted this inflammatory and entirely factually incorrect commentary to the Steve Stanton interview earlier today. So yes, you did delete other links. Here's the evidence. Here's where you deleted the Reflist template from the transsexualism article, which you have done repeatedly; at least three times now. Here's where you deleted a category (transgender) from the Transwoman article, for some reason. Here's where you attempted to embed your own website into article content even though it's already covered in the references. Here's where you inserted your POV into the article wholesale (with the obligatory link again) and again here. Note that a number of other editors - not just me - have reverted your edits. Your contributions are nothing but the same links to your own website. Please read WP:COI and WP:EL for the reasons why this is unacceptable. Please also see WP:OR to understand why original research is disallowed within Wikipedia. Note that HBS is an entirely non-proven syndrome and has scant acceptance among the medical and psych commmunity (including WPATH, yes). There is no proof that HBS is an intersex condition; there is just a bunch of suspicions and indeed, as I pointed out earlier today (which you did not address), recent evidence suggests that it may not be an intersex condition.

Hi again
It would be kinda good if you addressed my concerns. I've replied both here and on my talk page. Thanks! - Alison ☺ 15:23, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I've reverted Transsexualism yet again and removed your linkspamming. My rationale is in the edit history. Please stop adding this stuff without providing your rationale. Please read WP:EL and WP:COI - thanks. Alison ☺ 16:57, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Alison, You seem to take umbrage at my attempt to offer a link to the research data HTTP://www.harrybenjaminsyndrome-info.org/ that not only makes clear that we are not transgender sub-sets but are an intersex anomaly as has been indicated in research done by the Dutch, the Swedes as well as stated by Dr Gooren in his testimony in a court of law. Our links on our site do quote 'reliable' sources unlike those that are listed as social commentary links in Wikipedia. All we are attempting to do is make it clear that there are other concepts that offer more than an illusion under the transgender banner where some might find explanations not in concurance with the misinformation currently being pushed by those who seem to think our attitude and self identity is not viable. I do admit not being a computer whiz. I worked all of my life as a woman as well as being my husbands lifemate and computers were not part of that effort. So when it comes to making corrections or edits and even adding information to sites I sometimes err. My degree is in Political Science with a minor in Soc/Psych and when I attended university it was before the computer age. I worked using my brain and not a keyboard. You may contact me directly if you wish at: DianePa@yahoo.com Diane - — Preceding unsigned comment added by DianePa (talk • contribs)


 * Diane. I'll say this again. The link is already there. There's no need to spam it all over the place. Posting POV as fact is not allowable in an encyclopedia. The main Transsexualism article already covers multiple points of view, including your own org. It's there in black-and-white.


 * I have no problems with your technical edit skills. I'm not particularly concerned with your educational standards nor your personal history. None of it really matters when it comes to editing Wikipedia. Where the problem lies is in your linkspamming, POV-pushing and revert-warring.


 * Transsexualism is NOT a proven intersex condition. I'm sorry, but it isn't. The article, BTW, already extensively references the 1995 Zhou/Gooren study ... but it's still unproven. The jury is very much out still. Sorry.


 * Seriously - if you have an issue with what I'm doing here, please complain to an administrator or open an RFC. I'm being fair and balanced here. You are not. - Alison ☺ 17:35, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Alison, you seem to be confusing our link with the European HBS site which is run by a different group. If Lynn Conway is listed twice as an individual and more than a number of transsexual and transgender sites/links are listed then why is HBS restricted to only one link? That is bias. The only link I wanted to place was the one simple one with the name of our website, its link and a sentence explaining HBS as an intersex condition. That has more medical validity than transgenderism does without doubt. Fair and balanced???? How so? By continually erasing or deleting the link to our information site?

Transsexualism
Please be careful when attempting to links to pages. You accidently removed the See also and the reference section from the article. PaleAqua (talk) 17:44, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. One or more of the external links you added in this edit to Transsexualism do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. You may wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. Thingg &#8853; &#8855; 17:53, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

You appear to have made some reverts lately. Please be aware that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reverts on a single page within a 24 hour period. Rather than reverting edits, please consider using the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. The dispute resolution processes may also help. Excessive reverting may result in blocking of accounts. PaleAqua (talk) 17:58, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
