Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added 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.--John (talk) 03:03, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your explanation, John. I wrote the help desk asking if they would like to include links to a few resources on Wikipedia topics: hard-to-find old texts that are on my website. These are the English translations, and sometimes the only ones, of the works of the authors that are the topic of the Wiki article in question. That was how I did it before, when a text appeared to be a useful resource to supplement a Wikipedia entry. I was told that that Wiki editors no longer do this and I should do it myself. So I did.
The nofollow rule is not new information, I do know that it is not going to affect my pagerank. The texts are offered as an additional resource on the subject.Susan Rhoads (talk) 15:35, 29 March 2008 (UTC)Susan Rhoads.[reply]
