[edit] Spam
- I am only removing a single link, Good Ol' Toronto. It is to a not particularly useful site that isn't even working at the moment. It is a site that you clearly have a personal interest in, and adding links to such sites is spamming. Spam on Wikipedia is not tolerated. Persistently adding a link to a commercial site is considered vandalism, and can get you blocked from editing Wikipedia. - SimonP 14:50, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Now that the site is working again I have found that much of its content is merely illegally reprinted Wikipedia material, making it even more useless to our readers. The history page is almost identical to History of Toronto. If you do have some link to that site please make sure that it respects the GFDL reproduction rules. - SimonP 14:54, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Why are you getting so upset about one mediocre site, that is of lower quality and less useful to our readers than almost all the other ones you added? - SimonP 15:05, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
