[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 BBC Introducing has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam 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. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \byoutube\.com (links: http://www.youtube.com/bbcessexintroducing, http://www.youtube.com/bbcessexintroducing (redirect from http://www.youtube.com/bbcessexintroducing)). 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. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.
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 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) 10:03, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Baddies 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.

YMCA
[edit]I notice you are replacing many instances of the longer form of the name to the abbreviation. Why? The YMCA article makes clear the organisation was founded as the Young Men's Christian Association and fails to ever mention that the name changed officially to the abbreviated form and if/when that occurred in the various countries. I ask because you have changed a number of historic mentions of the organisation in Australian articles, and I wonder if that was really its name at that time. We should use the name that was correct at the time being discussed, which can be redirected to the currently-named article. I cannot find any discussion about renaming the organisation across Wikipedia at the article's Talk page and wonder where consensus was established to do this.

[edit] Your addition to Y's Men International has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

→ Hi Diannaa, I dispute that copyrighted content was included, the edits that have been removed that you have cited as copyrighted material were in my own words, and sourced. Perhaps you can add some clarity? Thanks Mikebromfield (talk) 12:30, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Your addition was flagged by a bot as a potential copyright issue and was assessed by myself. Here is a link to the bot report. Click on the iThenticate link to view the overlap.— Diannaa (talk) 12:46, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
