Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to King's Daughters may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

King's Daughters, external links[edit]

Hello DenisLedoux, I just followed out the last external link you added to this article, King's Daughters. The link worked, brought me to the page. There was some discussion of the King's Daughters but it did not seem to match the phrase you used to describe it. I was hoping to see the words of a marriage contract, from what you wrote. Did I not find the right part of that web page?

The other link you added seems to be the same as the one above it. Is that what you intended? It is a cool book in French, and maybe you want to direct people to a certain chapter? Anyway, thanks for helpful additions to the article. Only recently did I learn about this group of women, and that many of them are counted among my New France ancestors, very exciting! I will watch your talk page if you reply here, and also watch King's Daughters if your reply comes as changes to the External Links. --Prairieplant (talk) 16:36, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

August 2019[edit]

Hello, I'm C.Fred. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Editing have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. You've added the same link in multiple places in one article and to another article. —C.Fred (talk) 15:41, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. [1] MrOllie (talk) 13:46, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, DenisLedoux. We welcome your contributions, but it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to research published by a small group of researchers.

Scientific articles should mainly reference review articles to ensure that the information added is trusted by the scientific community.

Editing in this way is also a violation of the policy against using Wikipedia for promotion and is a form of conflict of interest in Wikipedia – please see WP:SELFCITE and WP:MEDCOI. The editing community considers excessive self-citing to be form of spamming on Wikipedia (WP:REFSPAM) and the edits will be reviewed and the citations removed where it was not appropriate to add them.

Finally, please be aware that the editing community highly values expert contributors – please see WP:EXPERT. I do hope you will consider contributing more broadly. If you wish to contribute, please first consider citing review articles written by other researchers in your field and which are already highly cited in the literature. If you wish to cite your own research, please start a new thread on the article talk page and add {{requestedit}} to ask a volunteer to review whether or not the citation should be added.
