Are you affiliated with fantasyliterature.net? You have posted a number of links to there lately. I recommend you post your suggested links to the "discussion" pages of the targeted articles, and let other contributors have a look before editing the actual article.

I am a user of the website (don't know if you want to call that "affiliated"), so that's how I know about it. I have added the links because they are more informative for a reader than many of the links already existing for those authors. There are links to portals and to sites with google ads on the pages I've added links to FanLit for. How can those be better?? Because they were here before? FanLit is a better resource even though it's newer. No distracting ads -- just good info. I thought the point is to give people helpful information. Thank you for the tip -- I will try to discuss it on the page, but I didn't think that was necessary. Chraak (talk) 14:38, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Chraak
- Welcome to Wikipedia! "Affiliated" is a polite way of saying "own the site and are trying to promote it by spamming links in Wikipedia." Wikipedia editors don't like that, even if the site is good. See Wikipedia:External_links for guidelines on external links. If you are just a satisfied user, than that's great, and we welcome the honest input. In any case, if you are having trouble getting a good-faith edit to stay, taking it to the talk page is the best way to getting it accepted. I'll have another look at fanlit.net and comment on the Stephen R Donaldson discussion page. Carboncopy (talk) 16:40, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edits
editHi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 14:47, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
