October 2009[edit]
Hi, thanks for your recent edit to Bubble sort. Perhaps you didn't notice that the link you replaced in the article provides a visual explanation of the Bubblesort algorithm, while the link you added was just a list of C examples (one of which is the Bubblesort). A C++ example is already included in the links. Since Wikipedia is not a collection of links, I reverted your change. If you think it is worth adding to the article, consider adding it to the list, rather than replacing an existing link (but, I don't think it is needed, in this case - see Wikipedia's guidelines for external links). Cheers, --4wajzkd02 (talk)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added such as to the page Heapsort do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. The edit(s) in question are as follows:

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Bubble sort. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See also WP:BRD. The edit(s) in question are as follows:
