Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Ford Madox Ford has been reverted. Your edit here to Ford Madox Ford 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://goodsoldier2013.weebly.com/) 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.

Hello, I'm XLinkBot. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page The Good Soldier, because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links.

Regarding ref additions
I have removed your Weebly link at The Good Soldier as such links do not appear to be appropriate for inclusion as an external link. If you believe otherwise, please explain why it should be included as an external link. Please read WP:EL to see what links can and cannot be used as external links. hmssolent \You rang? ship's log 12:20, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

@HMSSolent Hi, the link I added was to the website for an international academic conference on Ford Madox Ford's novel The Good Soldier, hosted by Swansea University and organised in association with the Ford Madox Ford Society. I thought this would be of interest to readers of the Ford Madox Ford and The Good Solider pages. The Ford Madox Ford Society's website includes a link to this site so it would appear to be reliable.

 * The link you've provided here is a better fit for an external link, but be sure to discuss it on the talk page, just to be sure. hmssolent \You rang? ship's log 23:44, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
