Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. The links you added to the page Toodyay, Western Australia have been removed. Please do not add commercial links—or links to your own private websites—to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links. See the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks.

 * The key issue is, were your edits to the Toodyay article motivated by a desire to improve the article, or a desire to promote the toodyay.tv website? Your edits made me suspect the latter: emboldening the link and adding text about the site to the article proper indicates more interest in promoting the site than in improving the article. I have overhauled the external links section, and reinserted your forum link. User talk:Hesperian 01:48, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
