Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, one or more of the external links you added to the page Scrip do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.Lcarscad (talk) 16:00, 18 January 2008 (UTC)


Actually, it is an inappropriate link - it goes to a commercial site that's selling a product. I was merely reviewing the recent changes, not the article as a whole or other links. You're welcome to remove any links that don't meet the guidelines at WP:EL. Lcarscad (talk) 04:46, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

I went ahead and did a major pruning of the links there - you're right, there were a number of other commercial links. I didn't think you were intentionally placing links in, by the way (mainly because you didn't go through a bunch of articles and put the exact same link on there). Anyway, what I should also have done earlier:

Welcome!
