University of Bath
Hi. Can you please stop replacing the text 'University of Bath' with a SPAM link to the University's web site. Instead please use University of Bath so that it is hyperlinked to the Wikipedia page for the university. Thanks. Lopifalko (talk) 12:49, 13 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Or to elaborate, slightly: If "University of Bath" is better linked, then the way to do this is "University of Bath" (which produces "University of Bath"). However, if a specific page of the U Bath website provides evidence for a particular assertion, then the way to add this is exemplified by:
 * which would produce an automatically-positioned and -numbered footnote reading
 * "Honorary graduates", University of Bath. Accessed 14 January 2012. (A list of honorary graduates of 2011.)
 * Various help pages hereabouts explain further. -- Hoary (talk) 13:09, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Proper linking
It is inappropriate to add links to the University of Bath's webpage directly within Wikipedia articles. Rather, within the article, you should add a WikiLink to the University of Bath page (generated by typing ). WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:48, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Adding cites
Hi, It's fine to add University of Bath citations to support article text but please add the webpage that gives the information about honorary degrees etc. To date you have add generic university pages. Thanks Span (talk) 17:53, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. http://www.bath.ac.uk/external.html does not WP:Verify any of the claims you are adding to the article -- so so adding it to the articles is just spam.
