Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it.  MrOllie (talk) 18:02, 29 February 2024 (UTC)


 * I appreciate your guidance regarding the use of Wikipedia for adding external links. My intention was not to misuse the platform for promotion or to contravene Wikipedia's guidelines on external links and spam. I understand the importance of maintaining the integrity and reliability of Wikipedia as a source of information.
 * My effort to add a link was driven by the observation that information on the legal process of changing one’s name in Scotland is significantly underrepresented on Wikipedia, especially when compared to the available information for other parts of the UK. The legal framework and procedures for name changes in Scotland differ notably from those in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, reflecting Scotland's distinct legal system.
 * Given the lack of comprehensive information on this topic on Wikipedia, I sought to contribute by providing a resource that offers detailed guidance on the process in Scotland. My aim was to enhance the content's completeness and utility for individuals seeking specific information about legal processes in Scotland.
 * I acknowledge and respect the rules set forth by Wikipedia regarding external links and the preferred method for suggesting content improvements. I will follow the recommended approach and initiate a discussion on the associated talk page to explain the relevance and importance of adding detailed information on name change procedures in Scotland. This approach will ensure that any additions comply with Wikipedia's guidelines and contribute positively to the knowledge base available to the public. Encarta96 (talk) 18:09, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
