Link removal
First of all, I'm sure you've noticed that I am not the only one who removed the links to that site. That link was added to many articles over the last couple of days (presumably by you, before you created a userid) and in each case the link was quickly removed by one editor or another. The consensus clearly is that your link was not appropriate for Wikipedia. I can't speak for the others, but I did visit the site and did not think that it had a particular commercial agenda. I am a cancer survivor myself and wouldn't want to deny information about treatment options to anyone, but Wikipedia simply cannot be a forum for personal views. There are other, much better outlets for that. Lastly, I'm not trying to "win" anything and certainly don't insist on deleting all contributions you make - you are assuming too much about me in suggesting that. Please feel free to continue to add content to Wikipedia, as long as you're comfortable with the inevitability that others will edit, alter, or even remove some of it.
