[edit] Hello, I'm Gogo Dodo. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added, because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:16, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
Re: External link
[edit]Re your message: I removed all of the links to the website because it appears that you were trying to drive traffic to the website that is a news aggregator. Per Wikipedia's external link guidelines, linking to aggregators normally to be avoided and instead a direct link to the source is preferred. Thus your direct link to CNN is fine. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 22:31, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
