Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Viral video has been reverted. Your edit here to Viral video 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 (http://www.youtube.com/all_comments?v=IY861UGa1Fo) 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. a sound or video file) 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) 05:08, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Diving 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 as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, 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 constructively to this encyclopedia.

Clarification from a human

 * Hi! I'm an actual human (unlink XlinkBot above). The reason your edits are being reverted is because Wikipedia, in general, doesn't allow links to YouTube.  The only time we usually do so is when we 1) know for certain that the uploader of the video holds the original copyright (like when a movie production company uploads an official trailer to a movie) and 2) there is no way to provide sources for the info other than the video.  The video you were uploading is of a single, trivial event; our job on Viral videos is not to list every viral video ever, but only to broadly discuss the concept, with specific links only to those that are already widely known as the most notable.  Similarly, the event is not important enough to be discussed on Diving.  As such, please don't keep trying to add that link to Wikipedia. Thanks! Qwyrxian (talk) 06:03, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
