Why did you remove my external links?
If you've come here because you want to know why I removed some external links you've added, please read Misplaced Pages's policies on spam, Misplaced Pages external link guidelines and conflict-of-interest first. Because of Misplaced Pages's popularity, it has become a target for folks looking to promote their sites, which is against Misplaced Pages policies. If you read WP:SPAM and still feel that your link(s) does not violate those policies, let me know.
One common argument I hear is But so-and-so link is on that article, and it's commercial! WP:EL doesn't explicitly forbid In links to commercial sites; it depends on the notability of the link, its content, and if it's a reference or a notable pro/con argument on a controversial subject, etc. On the other hand, I think that many Wikipedians would agree that there are way too many commercial links at present time, so feel free to "prune away" if the link doesn't meet guidelines in WP:EL. Incidentally, if you've come here to complain that I've deleted links to your blog (especially a blog with advertising), don't bother. You'll have to find free advertising somewhere else. A good Google search will reveal plenty of places for that sort of thing.
Vandalism and insults left here will be recycled in the bit bucket. Remember: be nice!

Sad news
Anthony Bradbury passed away peacefully on 1st January 2024. Requiescat in pace. Davidelit (Talk) 09:23, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- This is...upsetting to read, to say the least. Anthony Bradbury was my RfA nominator almost 17 years ago. He and I messaged over the years and I have him on Facebook. I'm saddened to hear that we've lost such a kind and honorable man from the world and Misplaced Pages. I know I will miss him. Davidelit, thank you for sharing this so the community knows and can remember Tony. Acalamari 11:40, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

- RIP, I didn't know him well at all, but it's sad to lose a prolific editor and an admin. It seems he was a steady hand here for many years, and for that he deserves our thanks. Graham87 (talk) 16:41, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
