Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Welford street miracles has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam 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. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \byoutube\.com (links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eivfza_9nmc). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections. 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 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) 17:07, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Welford Street Miracles
A tag has been placed on Welford Street Miracles, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of Welford Street Miracles and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Crusio (talk) 13:41, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

R. Merial Martin and Welford Street Miracles
Hi, you keep adding links to Martin and his novels to the Port Arthur, Texas article. You should note first that Detergent does not link to any novel at all and is therefore an inappropriate wikilink here. Second, there is no article on Martin, so I don't see why you would add a wikilink to him. Third, it would be good to provide some evidence that Martin is indeed a "famous resident" of Port Arthur. Finally, you removed the prod on the Welford Street Miracles article, as is your good right. However, if no good sources establishing the notability of this novel are forthcoming within a reasonable time, I will propose this article for deletion. By the way, references to websites of booksellers, blogs, YouTube, and such are not considered reliable sources. --Crusio (talk) 15:37, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Removing AfD tag
Hi again, you should not remove the AfD tag from the Welford Street Miracles article before the AfD is finished. That is considered vandalism and may get you blocked from editing Wikipedia. The tag provides a link to the AfD debate, where you can vote and give your arguments for keeping the article. However, please read the policies on notability that I linked to above, as well as those on reliable sources. Hope this helps. --Crusio (talk) 19:13, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
