edits to Green tea, Deadlift, and Squat (exercise)
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policy for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. --User: (talk) 16:06, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Signature Tip
I noticed that you keep having to go back and add or edit your signature. There are a few ways you can do this to make your life easier. One is to add (four tildes) ~ after you finish signing and it will do the basic signature. Two is to click on the little image at the top of the edit window, in between the W with a red circle and line through it and the dash. The Third way is to go here and decide which one you like and use it. If any of this is not clear, let me know. But hopefully, this will help make signing your name easier. --User: (talk) 02:08, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Maniwar, thanks for the tip. Will make my life easier.

I've edited multiple articles based on your recommendations. Tell me what you think of it.

 * Looks good. I'd much rather see the contributions your doing which takes away the suspicions that you are only interested in link spamming. Although you didn't discuss adding the link on the articles talk pages, I do see that no other editors are removing them, so I'll also leave them alone as well. However, as previously stated, don't be surprised if someone challenges you on them. At that point, just be ready to defend why you want them in or feel that they contribute to the article. Another pointer. If you notice, in edit mode, I placed a : at the beginning of my post because that indents my post underneath yours. To keep a logical conversation, were you to respond, then you would simply add ::, so fourth and so on. Each : you add will indent further. Makes sense? Anyway, this is a good thing to know so that when you are communicating on talk pages for articles or individuals, it keeps the flow. Any other questions you have, you're more than welcomed to stop at my talk page and ask away. Happy editing, and keep being bold. --User: (talk) 17:50, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok learning every day ;-) Glad to hear you like my contributions.  Thanks for the tips, will use them. --Stronglifts 18:36, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Hello A.B.,


 * Maniwar made me aware of the rules on Wikipedia. I agree that Wikipedia is not a place for self-promotion. I also think that the Wikipedia Community deserves the right information.


 * 1) On the articles on the deadlift, Press (Overhead), military press little info is given about the technique on the lifts. Most injuries are caused because of inappropriate technique.  The external links I've put shows correct technique/tips for the lifts.  Do you consider this an added value for the Wikipedia Community?


 * 2) Article on Stress (medicine): The GAS stress model is fundamental to weight training, strength training, powerlifting, periodization,... No info is given on the GAS model from a physical stress POV. Same question: do you see the external link an added value for the Wikipedia Community?


 * 3) Article on Low back pain: posture/misaligned pelvis is one of the reasons for lower back pain. Glute Activation Work is a proven solution. Same question: do you think the external link is an added value for the Wikipedia Community?


 * If you need references, feel free to ask.


 * Thank you for your time

Stress
Hi,

I just did a bit of editing on the Stress (medicine) page. Please note that the see also section is only used for links that are not already embedded in the body text, and should be kept to a minimum; the preference is to integrate them with the article text. See here.

Thanks,

 * Hi WLU,
 * I saw that you had made editing on the Stress (medicine) page. I'll remember your tip for the see also section.  Thanks! --Stronglifts 06:16, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
