Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not remove citations or information sourced through citations simply because a link to a source is not working. Dead links should not be deleted. Instead, please repair or replace the link, if possible, and ensure properly sourced information is retained. Often, a live substitute link can be found. Links not used as references, notes or citations are not as important, such as those listed in the "External links" or "Further reading" sections, but bad links in those sections should also be fixed if possible. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. '' Please stop removing links and references from articles. This is not helpful.

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Senator2029 “Talk” 12:12, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Editing advice
Instead of removing findarticles.com citations completely, could you add the dead link syntax instead? Alternatively, in some cases, it could be possible to replace the link. For example, in this instance I replaced the findarticles.com link with thefreelibrary.com. PhilKnight (talk) 15:10, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
