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 web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it.

I've placed this warning because I see you've added a number of links to different articles, all focusing on the same material. Additionally, the tone of your edit summary makes it look like you may be a part of this ExecutiveBiz website, and thus may have a Conflict of Interest in placing these links. If this is not the case, then I'm sorry for making such an assumption, but in either case, please be more careful about adding external links, when they may not be immediately relevant to the article. — Huntster (t • @ • c) 20:49, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

''Hunster, As per Wikipedia’s guidelines concerning external link spamming, the links I added to said articles are not intended to promote explicitly a website, product, individual, or corporation. Chief among your qualms is a purported conflict of interest. Understandably, the aims of Wikipedia are to “produce a neutral, reliably sourced encyclopedia,” but none of the links to the interviews are biased, as they were conducted and reported objectively, and with the intent to educate. Further, the source is secondary and independent as it concerns the article’s subject. By no means is it the intention of myself or ExecutiveBiz to publicize, advertise, or promote an individual or a website (least of all ExecutiveBiz’s own site), and the links were added to better inform the Wikipedia community. Clearly, Wikipedia articles existed previous to the addition to my external links, meaning that others, as well as Wikipedia administrators, have deemed the subject meritorious and notable enough for inclusion. Thusly, my external links seemed relevant via the contention that others might find the information auxiliary to information already posted on Wikipedia. The purpose of my additions was to inform and to educate. Please reconsider the deletion of my links. Thank you.'' 16 September 2008


 * The External links section typically should only contain official links relating to the subject material, or links to widely-used resources (such as IMDB for TV shows and films). If the content of your interviews helps support a statement in the article, or adds something new, include the links as citations to those statements, but don't add them just external links. Please realise that the subjects of the articles have likely been interviewed numerous times, and it is neither justified nor desired to link to as many interviews as might exist. — Huntster (t • @ • c) 08:30, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
