Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites that you are affiliated with, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

In particular one should not add external links to websites/organisation one is a member of (instead propose on an article's talk page and let other users decide whether or not to incorporate into the article).

Whilst wikipedia is not here to direct the reader outwards to gain information (add content rather than external links), your system of collating EBM resources is intriging. For now please do not add links to your site onto mutilple articles as this will count as spamming. Instead, may I suggest you propose whether your site might be useful to the Clinical Medicine Wikiproject. If it were thought a useful external resource to use, then it probably should be added to articles not as a manual External link, but included in Template:Infobox Disease - I note for now though that your site gives links to several of the links already directly provided by this template, so a tertiary listings resource rather than the EBM sites themselves.

ATTRACT
Please do not repost speedily deleted material. This is considered vandalism and can lead to you being blocked from editing for a period of time. (aeropagitica) 20:25, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry about re-posting the ATTRACT article. As there was no sign that it had been deleted I assumed I had forgot to save the article!


 * Why it was deleted? Ok it wasn't particularly great, but I was going back to add to it.  Should I have indicated it was a 'stub'?  ATTRACT is a significant contribution to clinical knowledge management and probably the oldest formalised Q&A service for primary care.--Jonbrassey 07:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

As I explained, the article was deleted because it was a repost of a previously-deleted article. That article was deleted because it was non-encyclopedic and instead read as blatant advertising or spam. (aeropagitica) 15:43, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of NLH Q&A Service


The article NLH Q&A Service has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Unreferenced and not encyclopaedic

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
