Link on Medulloblastoma Page[edit]

Why did you remove this link from the medulloblastoma page without even bothering to offer an explanation? It does not represent spam by any stretch of the imagination.

That page contains an article written by Dr. Packer of Children's National Medical Center in DC, followed by a list of clinical trials. Dr. Packer is one of the world's foremost experts on medulloblastoma, the standard treatment for medulloblastoma is called the "Packer protocol", see here and PMID 11305414 (reference to Packer Protocol in article on adult medullo).

I removed it because it appeared to be against the Guidelines for External Links. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, it is a collection of information. Adding information about the Packer Prototcol to the article would be welcome, but a bare external link probably isn't. --Mdwyer 16:19, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I switched it to a citation. I've been trying to improve that article and sometimes I will place a link as more or less a placeholder until I am able to cite it.
That article is most definitely a work in progress. My son has a variant of medulloblastoma and I've learned much. The previous article was full of uncited factual inaccuracies. I'm working on trying to fix that.

Yes, I had noticed that you had been doing quite a bit of editing. Thank you for that! I apologize if I was initially abrupt. I really appreciate what you're doing. --Mdwyer 03:58, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
