Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Twelve Variations on "Ah vous dirai-je, Maman" has been reverted. Your edit here to Twelve Variations on "Ah vous dirai-je, Maman" 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 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OosUrP7lptg&list=UU8vR6VP-3o_SpdnEBrpYGiQ) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. 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, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. 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. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 19:49, 10 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi Wimm, I've put the link back, and this time placed it in the external links section. The usual concern with YouTube links on Wikipedia (and the reason that your edit was automatically undone) is that they're copyright violations, but this doesn't apply in this case, because you uploaded the video as the performer. It's a fascinating performance, by the way!


 * You can also upoad these videos to Wikipedia (and that would be a very good thing ... we are short on videos); if you wish to do this, you would need to license them under a license that allows the videos to be used commercially. See Videos for more details. Graham 87 07:14, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

Recent edits to Piano Sonata No. 8 (Beethoven)
I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added toPiano Sonata No. 8 (Beethoven), because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Also adding links within the article is prohibited. Please read our external links guideline and links to be avoided. If you think I made a mistake, feel free to contact me directly. Thank you!

 * I've put the link back for now, but see [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Piano_Sonata_No._8_(Beethoven)&diff=616917059&oldid=616904682 this edit summary]. It would probably be better to propose link additions such as this on the talk page of the article you want to add the link to, and to consult WikiProject classical music. Whatever you do, please make sure your YouTube links do not link to any playlist ... make sure that "list=" does not appear in the URL. Graham 87 14:37, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
