 * You have linked Gekkonids to several articles, which appears to be a forum or social networking site. I have looked at it for a while and cannot seem to navigate to the species linked from the article, and at first dismissed it as a self-promotion link. However your edit to New Caledonian Crested Gecko, where you put the exact forum thread pertaining to the gekko is permitted under external links policy and proved to me that gekkonids is actually better than I thought it was. I invite you to readd all Gekkonids links to the articles given that you link the exact thread pertaining to the corresponding gecko. We appriciate your work. Here is a list of all the articles you've link that I've removed: here and here is a list of articles that link gekkonids that needs to be correctly linked to the exact species: here.  Please do not link the main page of Gekkonids, just the corrisponding gekko thread to each gecko. Thanks.


 * By the way, your other Wikipedia account, "" has not been blocked. Please log in and edit with that one. Thanks again. -- penubag  (talk) 04:04, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
