Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Glaisher [talk] 10:55, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Mean as custard,

this message is a response to the reversal of a MOOC posting I made. MOOCs are freely available/accessible. The content is highly relevant. Structurally, how does a link to a MOOC (or other online course) differ from a link to a scientific paper? or a newspaper article, a book?

This new format should be supported as it gets more and more important and is a valueable resource for further learning / reference. The MOOCs are produced by acclaimed professor of accredited universites. Please elaborate.

Greetings, Max Schumacher
