October 2010[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Walking to Hollywood has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT92eyGxatk. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 22:48, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you left a comment on the discussion page for this article and I thought I would answer it here as well as there. First of all, thank you for creating the article. You were certainly free to remove the banners if you disagreed with them, or if you addressed the issues the editor who put them there was concerned about (which you did - thanks). The notability banner was put there because that editor wasn't sure if the book was sufficiently notable to have an article on it - it is a guideline, not a rule, and generally speaking if there are two good independent in-depth references to the subject of an article, or more rather less detailed ones then it is sufficiently notable. You can read more about the guideline at WP:Notability. But this book is certainly notable by this criteria and there wasn't any realistic possibility that the article would be deleted. Thank you again for creating it. Best wishes. Jll (talk) 22:45, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
