Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Swami Ashokananda 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://swamiashokananda.wordpress.com/. 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) 02:18, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Ramakrishna. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. You also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you. Ian.thomson (talk) 03:09, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Dear Niyamachaitanya,

We also had to learn that, strange as it may seem, there are Wikipedia editors who want to include all kinds of sex business on the Ramakrishna page. As it stands now, there is a kind of truce between the two sides; if you look at the Ramakrishna talk page, (and archives) you can see that some very heated arguments raged for a long time. A number of editors keep an eye on the page (from both sides), as you may have noticed (your edits were reverted). So edits to the page have to have some good support in references to books. Though we would like, we can't just remove stuff, even if we consider it untrue, because that material has been referenced. Perhaps, after Swami Tyagananda's book gets more well-known, the Kripal perspective can be reduced or eliminated (if other editors agree that Tyaganandaji fairly well proves Kripal's arguments to be, as he puts it, "a house of cards"). But knowing Wikipedia, there will always be someone to support another viewpoint. Which in general may be a good thing for Wikipedia. But the sometimes nasty arguments left a bitter taste in my mouth, and I have more or less given up editing here; I just keep an eye on a few pages (watchlist).

Good luck to you! Devadaru (talk) 14:39, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
