Why did you block me
The external site I was adding was relevant to all the listing. The Peabody Essex Museum is one on of the most important museums in the world. ITs Philips Library has over 400k volumes making it one of the largest private non academic libraries in the world. the offen collection is probably the largest in the united states on the subject of asian architecture, gardens and furniture. i just wanted to let people know where to find more info. it is NOT a commercial site.

This is not advertising. The Peabody Essex Museum is the oldest museum in North. Am. Its Philips Library msay be the largest private non-academic library in the US, with over 400k volumes. The Offen collection, over 3,000 items, is most likely the largest collection pertaining to Chinese architecture, gardens and furniture out side of China. It has substantial holding on like topics of Japan and Korea.

I added the link to relevant sites so that interested persons coud access more resources. I do not work for the museum and there is nothing to sell. The library is a non-circulating reference library. I thought I followed the guidelines.

Also, while I am a long time user of wiki, this was tghe first time editing. The block happened in 4 minutes, before I could figure out how to respond.

Per the assumption of good faith, I've unblocked you for now. As I mentioned in my email response, please consider the village pump and have a look at our external links guidelines. I do encourage you to consider referencing as a source, in line with our verifiability policy. Again, if you have any questions, please contact me. Luna Santin 05:19, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Bimal Mukherjee
Another editor has added the "prod" template to the article Bimal Mukherjee, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the prod template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
