Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Louis Pergaud do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. You shouldn't add this site to every page, especially as it is not in English RJC TalkContribs 19:18, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Hi there. I know that other editors have raised this same language issue related to your edits. WP:NONENGEL and the Manual of Style advise against links to foreign language sites unless they are directly related to the article topic (e.g., a link to El Pais in the article on it). I hope this helps. RJC TalkContribs 20:50, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
