[edit] Re: List of portable software deletion

Sorry, I'd rather not email you. Anyway, my reasoning:

• There were (and still are) too many external links. I removed yours because of the new things I noticed about the site:

- It's selling something, which seemed spammy.

- When I first checked, it hadn't been updated for a month.

- The most important section of the site (arguably) requires registration. These sites are to be avoided per WP:EL.

Since you are the site administrator, you shouldn't advocate that your site appear under that section because it is a conflict of interest. How'd you find out so quickly that your site was removed anyway? Carson 03:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
