editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to The Profit, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Cirt (talk) 05:03, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Please remove your link you added to the torrent of this film. I am in the process of trying to get this article to "Good Article" status and your reinsertion of this link will hurt my chances of being able to improve this article's quality status, which I have been working on. Thanks, Cirt (talk) 06:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Please also remove the Digg.com link. I am in the process of working on this article, and the presence of the piratebay and Digg.com links will hinder that process. Eventually if the article can someday get to WP:FA status it could get on the Main Page, but if you insist on reinserting these links which are inappropriate in an encyclopedic article - that will never happen.

Are either of these links official links released by the film's producers itself of the film? Cirt (talk) 06:30, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Even though we have not violated WP:3RR with regard to these 2 links, we can't go back and forth like this, it is just not productive. I will ask for some outside input through a WP:RfC. Cirt (talk) 13:44, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Request for Comment
editPlease see the Request for Comment section, of the talk page for The Profit. Cirt (talk) 14:02, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Wikipedia has extant policies regarding what sorts of links can be kept in a wikipedia article. Some of the links you have argued for in the article The Profit are in clear violation of those policies, and by wikipedia policies can and should be removed immediately. Please do not attempt to reinsert them. Doing so might well be seen as constituting vandalism. Considering that this article is already on probation as per the Arbritration Committee, as can be seen at the top of the article's talk page, any act of vandalism is sufficient cause for an administrator, such as myself, to block immediately. If you honestly believe that the links should be included, please give your reasoning on the article's talk page. However, having reviewed the situation myself, you will have to provide a very strong argument for that to happen. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 20:50, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
