Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, the commercial links/content you added were inappropriate, as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and should not be used for advertising or a collection of external links. See the welcome page if you'd like to learn more about contributing to the encyclopedia. Thanks! --BigDT 02:04, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't disagree with the need to keep external links clean, but to call a link to PicksPal "advertising" may be a bit much. How do you distiguish between who gets a link and who doesn't? The site has 100,000+ users and IS a fantasy football site. Other sites like CDM Sports, FF Today, FSPNET, TFL Report, Football Guys, Grogans (and many others) have been providing fantasy football information and contests for over a decade. Some have been around since before there even WAS Yahoo or Sportsline fantasy football. And FoxSports is only 2 years old. Again, I'm completely for the idea that Wikipedia is an information based site and not a link directory. I just can't see how one site can be allowed while other (also deserving) sites are left out. I don't think WyomingMan's edit was in any way "inappropriate" as you suggest. --ContentEditor 11:03, 13 December 2006
