Gunther disease/congenital erythropoietic porphyria
[edit]In reply to your post:
i'm so tech ignorant i can't figure out how to link my website to the congenital erythropoietic porphyria (CEP) page. as stated on the site this is an extemely rare disorder (one in a million according to wikipedia). my father was one of them. i have put together a website that includes photographs and video of the devasting physical effects of the rare disorder - something lacking on wikipedia's CEP page. please help. the link is www.genebennett.net thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbennettfirchow (talk • contribs) 08:04, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
- I think you may be wanting to list your website www.genebennett.net in the external links section of the congenital erythropoietic porphyria article. The bad news is that Wikipedia:External links may not allow listing a link from the Wikipedia article to your website. The good news is there's more than one way to accomplish what you want. For example, if you own a picture of your father that you would like to upload to Wikimedia Commons, we can include www.genebennett.net in that photo's upload page and include that photo in the Gunther disease article. That would allow people reading the Wikipedia article to find your website through the article. On a different note, if your dad has ever been mentioned in a newspaper article or other reliable source, you may be able to add that information into Wikipedia. Also, if you have enough reliable source information on him, I would be happy to help you develop a Wikipedia biography article on your dad. Plese feel free to post a note on my talk page. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 11:01, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
- hello. thanks for you reply. i'm still confused, but confident. unfortunately, i am leaving for a five day trip and won't be able to do anything about the post for a week or so. my father is in a medical book on porphyria and his picture is there too. maybe we can use that. i also have many photographs in my personal family album of my father that i can try to use. i will need a lot of help with this because i just don't get it. it took forever to figure out how to reply to your reply. thank you again. can i contact you when i return?Mbennettfirchow (talk) 20:11, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
