January 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page TommyJoe Ratliff 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://adamquotedaily.wordpress.com/tommy-joe-ratliff-just-the-facts/.
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) 07:22, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to TommyJoe Ratliff. 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 web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site 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 article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 05:13, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Tommy Joe Ratliff's given names

Hi there. We know his family and we changed the name from TommyJoe to Tommy Joe at his mother's request. She says his name is Tommy Joe in two words. She should know, she gave it to him! His sister Lisa also confirmed it and Tommy is fine with it, we checked with him. Elara (talk) 13:56, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I do know Tommy and Tommy's family. May I revert your change and call the article "Tommy Joe Ratliff"? Thanks, Elara (talk) 20:17, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

I don't feel comfortable discussing that in public. Is there another way I can communicate with you in private? Elara (talk) 21:15, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
