Hi

Firstly I would like to apologise for reverting your edits and tagging them as vandalism. With hindsight they were good faith edits and I should have taken the time to flag them up appropriately. As you become more experienced on Wikipedia you will notice that most of an editor’s time is spent reverting content that is either out and out vandalism or inappropriate - and at times it is hard to distinguish between vandalism and good faith edits that you feel are inappropriate. On this occasion, however, I was probably just a little lazy.

I reverted your edits because they did not appear to meet the guidelines for external links and the aim that Wikipedia is not a collection of links. I have now also removed the motivational speaking link from Clive Woodward that I would have done previously had I noticed that it was there. I consider such links to be advertising. To be honest I don't feel that a link to the website of an individual's management team to be appropriate for Wikipedia, but I am happy to be proven otherwise. If, after reading the above guideline, you believe that your links should be added back into Wikipedia, then add them back in (I’m not claiming to be perfect and I may have missed something). If I disagree with your reasoning I’m not going to revert them a second time, we can get third party input into it.

With regards to the article on Bonded DSL Rings if you feel that the information is useful to readers of the page then the best way to get it in is to include information within the article, not just paste the link. Wikipedia encourages editors to be bold - you are obviously passionate about the article so working the information into the article is probably the best way to get the message across.

Having said all that I would like to welcome you to Wikipedia, (and this next bit is cut and pasted from the welcome I received in December 2005) you might like some of these links and tips:
 * some General guidance.
 * Tutorial and the Manual of Style.
 * Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
 * Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;).
 * Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
 * Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
 * Use the Show preview button
 * Provide an Edit summary
 * Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
 * Take a look at Consensus of standards
 * Create a User page

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance. KingStrato (talk) 18:39, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
