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 the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. 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. JFW | T@lk  21:00, 2 April 2009 (UTC)


 * The links I added are from the Rare Disease Database of the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare. The links are meant to add info to the Wikipedia articles and are not promotional. I do not really see the problem with adding the links, and I am curious to know if you read the content of any of the articles before you deleted the links? The information texts are written by leading specialists, and are reviewed by a scientific advisory board before publication. I work at one of the Swedish University Hospitals, and since there are few medical articles about these rare diseases in Swedish Wikipedia, the links are added to English Wikipedia to make them easily available to the general public.

External links need to meet specific criteria. Please read WP:EL. These articles essentially contain the same information as one would expect from a Wikipedia article. I don't dispute the accuracy of these articles. JFW | T@lk  23:04, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Late-onset spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Late-onset spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.socialstyrelsen.se/en/rarediseases/Late-onset+spondyloepiphyseal+dysplasia.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 10:16, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
