Hello, your external links on the dog sledding web pages are against wikipedia policy, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising nor is it a collection of web links. These links have already been reverted once, repeatedly putting them back will most likely result in blocking of your account. - Trysha (talk) 20:28, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. thanks for the info...

Another welcome
Hi - just saw your message on New user log. Sorry you had kind of a rough start, and I hope you will indeed stick around and help with improving the encyclopedia. Thanks for being understanding of our policy against external links that look like advertising- if we allowed that kind of thing we'd be overrun, and it would make Wikipedia less useful as a resource.

Yes, please don't feel discouraged about your links being removed. You are still more than welcome to contribute to dog-sledding articles (or any other articles, for that matter). For future reference, you can see Wikipedia's guidelines for external links to determine whether certain links are appropriate. --TantalumTelluride 21:49, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
