Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page AMVETS has been reverted. Your edit here to AMVETS was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.facebook.com/AMVETSHQ) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. 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) 17:49, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

OTRS notice
I have rollbacked your revert to the Paul Rieckhoff article. As I made clear on that article's talk page, the sources used are not allowable under Wikipedia rules, especially in conjunction with BLPs (biographies of living people). You may state your disagreement on that discussion page or take other appropriate action in accordance with Wikipedia guidelines, but you may not revert the edit without consulting the Wikipedia community. Thank you for your consideration. Asav | Talk (Member of the OTRS Volunteer Response Team) 06:48, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

I notice your ongoing interest in matters concerning Mr. Rieckhoff's miltary decorations. I reiterate that private websites and blogs are not to be used as references, furthermore you are advised not to give undue weight to matters that are not essential in biographies of living people, please refer to Due and undue weight. Lastly, you are requested not to cherry-pick quotes or other material to bias the article. Thank you. Asav | Talk (Member of the OTRS Volunteer Response Team) 04:42, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
