I'm not denying the effort you've put into your wiki. I think it's a great resource. That said, it's your personal website, and usually, if you feel you need to add links to your own sites here at Wikipedia, well, that can and usually does present a problem. If your site is indeed notable, then soon enough somebody else will add it. We aim for content and expansion of articles here at Wikipedia, not a directory of relevant links at the articles footer.

Your site doesn't have a lot of activity (5 users = a new site, either not popular or just getting off the ground), which is listed under Item #13 of WP:EL, under "Links normally to be avoided", more specifically... "Links to open wikis, except those with a substantial history of stability and a substantial number of editors." To your own credit, you did enquire as to the links worth at Talk:Melbourne well before adding it, but I still feel it's not adding anything to the article that isn't already there. Cheers. -- Longhair\talk 11:01, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
