Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Menno Simons has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://mennonitejustice.blogspot.com/. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest). If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 18:42, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi! There are three significant problems with the link you're adding to Wikipedia. One is that it doesn't appear to meet Wikipedia's criteria for reliable independent sources- it appears to be an individual's personal web page, not a published source. Second, it appears to be your own web site, and under the conflict of interest guidelines, we all agree to avoid linking to our own web sites. And third, it appears that adding this link is your main purpose on Wikipedia, and you're adding it to more than one article, which makes you present the appearance of spamming. If you're interested in improving the encyclopedia, you can do that by adding information- neutral, factual information- to articles, and cite the best available sources that verify that information. If you're mainly interested in promoting your web site, I'm afraid you'll have to do that elsewhere. Thanks for not making any more links of this sort! -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:23, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
