[edit]Hello, I'm McGeddon. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the page Fun, because they 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.

Yousuf24: I'm sorry no one welcomed you to Wikipedia and explained our policies before. Unfortunately, all you seem to be doing here is adding blogspot blogs as references and external links, and we do not accept them as either because they are not reliable sources and do not meet our standards for external links. Please stop. Add newspaper or magazine references instead. To add a new footnote, insert it in the text between <ref> and </ref> and it will appear in the list of footnotes automatically; but do not replace an existing footnote with a new one without saying so in your edit summary.
