suggestions for inclusion?
Hello, I noticed that you removed the external link to the BC Center for Corporate Citizenship from the CSR advocates section of the Corporate Social Responsibility page. I've used this organization's resources for CSR study, and they do provide a lot of balanced, well-researched material that can be helpful to those interested in corporate citizenship. A lot of that material is available (for free) on their site, which is why I linked to it. Can you please suggest the best way for me to include a reference to them on the CSR page without violating any of Wikipedia's rules? I feel that they're an important voice in the CSR world, and they provide some valuable perspective on the topic. Thanks! Rebeccamw 14:27, 8 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Greetings! That external link on the CSR page may not be appropriate. Review Wikipedia's guidelines on external links. External links on a page should be directly related to the subject of the article, i.e. linking directly to an article on the BC Center for Corporate Citizenship's website about CSR may be appropriate, especially if it contributes some new knowledge as a "further reading" link. Beyond that, Wikipedia is not a mere list of links. The corporate social responsibility article gets dozens of new links every month to worthy organizations and some not-so-worthy ones (for-profit "resource centers", etc.). You can see how linking to the organization you're familiar with would soon lead to others and soon the page would be mostly external links again. Now, the CSR article may need some more work from an expert, especially citing sources. Do you think you'd be up for reviewing that article for inaccuracies and misconceptions, all the while maintaining a neutral point of view? I'm not an expert or even acquainted with CSR all that well; I just watch the page and remove the inappropriate external links, well-meaning or otherwise. Let me know if you have any further questions. Cheers, --Rkitko (talk) 14:59, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
