 * Thank you for your response, and explanation of your actions. However, the links were removed because they do not meet the requirements of Wikipedia's external links guideline. In a nutshell, this site is not intended to be a directory service; we do not link to every site related to a topic, but instead only to only those that are considered to be of direct benefit to the article in question. (The IMDB links you mention are added by individual editors, not by IMDB itself.) Furthermore, Wikipedia generally avoids linking to petitions, campaigns, and other similar events. Thanks again for asking; please feel free to enquire if you need additional explanation. Cheers.. --Ckatz chat spy  22:35, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
