[edit] re: Austin

Though there is no specific policy (or even a guideline), my experience here tells me that links to web forums are generally seen as unfavorable. Forums aren't specifically mentioned at Wikipedia:External links, but has guidelines about adding a single directory for multiple links related to a given subject. Wikipedia is not a web directory. I will not revert your edit but I would not be surprised if someone else does. Thanks, -- Gyrofrog (talk) 06:19, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

  • P.S. I did not see a specific link to a message board in the Dallas, Texas article. I did see a link to the Historical Society's website, which includes a message board, which in my view is a different scenario. Thanks again, -- Gyrofrog (talk) 06:27, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
