RLSS

21:28, 24 September 2006 Randomwellwisher (Talk | contribs) m (removed individual club websites, they are not relevant and are basically advertising) - comment on RLSS

Just a short note on your modifications of the RLSS wikipedia site

The RLSS is its volunteers and its voluntary clubs, by denying they links you miss the point of how the voluntary clubs operate and how they are the society.

The society does not run user courses, its clubs do, the society does not train the public, its clubs do

As an NTA I am surprised that anyone involved in lifesaving would do anything to prevent communication between the groups and would have the lack of understanding to call it advertising.

I leave the next edit in your hands,

best wishes 7/10/06 Since you are an anonymous IP with no edits other than the one on my talk page, I doubt you will come back to read my response. Nevertheless.. I do not fully understand the reasoning behind your complaint. You are implying that I maliciously removed links to club websites, in order to sever contact between clubs and their members. This is not the case. I removed them because they are nothing more than advertising. If we were to include links to two clubs, then it would be logical that we should link to all of them. I am simply following guidelines specified in What Wikipedia is not. Wikipedia is not a place to promote things, regardless of whether the thing being promoted is a charitable club, a political party or a product. Wikipedia is also not a search engine, in that people looking to join a particular lifesaving club (or find its website) would be better advised to use Google or another search engine.

Therefore, I feel that my removal of the links was in keeping with the Guidelines of Wikipedia. If you or someone else feels that they should be there for one reason or another, then you have every right to put them back, and I will not go out of my way to take them out again, if you have a genuine reason why they should be included in the article.
