Poker Babes
I don't think edit warring is the proper way to solve this. Poker-Babes is a self published source and is used in a massive number of articles as a reference and as an external link. This is clearly not warranted as this is not a PokerNews type authoritative poker website, it is the opinions of one person. Were it used sparingly I would not have a problem with it but it is clear somebody has been very aggressive about inserting this site into as many Misplaced Pages articles as possible and I don't think that is appropriate and it clearly meets my definition of 'spam' DegenFarang (talk) 02:29, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
