editPlease do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Rule of law. 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. You seem to be adding a link to the Crime Victims Support Association] to numerous articles: this is not an appropriate external link for inclusion in wikipedia. Please refrain from adding it to further articles. Thanks Ajbpearce (talk) 08:30, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Words to avoid`
editHi, "claimed" is on the "words to avoid" list because it has negative bias; it implies disbelief in what is being said. "Noted" is also problematic, as it implies acceptance of what is said. "Stated" or "Said" is neutral; see WP:CLAIM KillerChihuahua 00:43, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
