ProcessWiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ProcessWiki)

Hi Erwin, I read your comments on my discussion page. I posted my reply on the deletion on the corresponding project page. Besides the deletion I would also like to react on your statement Wikipedia is not a linkfarm. When I take a look at the Business_processes#External_links I see another external link to a website about business processes. What is the difference between a link to the Processwiki and one to the other website? --Pvanerk (talk) 08:54, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi, first of all thanks for replying to the deletion nomination. Second, the most important difference between these links is that you caught my attention by adding your links to multiple pages on both the Dutch and English Wikipedia. My not removing other links doesn't mean they are more useful. I just didn't check them. --Erwin (talk) 19:30, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Erwin, that doesn't sound like a really consistent approach ;-) More as a selective, biased decision. Nevertheless, on the english version of wikipedia you can find quite some external links mentioned in articles (in contrast to the dutch wikipedia). The english wikipedia is not so strict regarding the insertion of external links, so I still am convinced you should be able to add external links to articles (for the english wikipedia, for the dutch version you are completely right!). --Pvanerk (talk) 13:14, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Meta admins and discussions

Hi there. There has been mention of a meta blacklisting and admin actions (from January 2009) at a current request for arbitration here on en-Wikipedia. The request is titled "Abd and JzG". I've asked there whether I've found the right links to the meta discussions and actions mentioned at the request. If I have the right person (I think you made the edit to the blacklist to add the website in question), then this is a courtesy notification so that you are aware of this. There was also an earlier RfC, but I don't know if you were aware of that. If you could help fill out some of the background to this, either at the request or when the case opens, that would be great. Thanks. I'm leaving a duplicate of this note at your meta user talk page.

Thanks for the heads-up. I didn't know about either one. I'm not familiar with the workings of the this wiki's arbitration committee, so if you need anything let me know. --Erwin (talk) 20:28, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello Erwin,

I see that you have been removing anything posted by myself to do with Algarve travel. Is there a reason you are targeting this site?? (as this is not the first time you have removed info) why not the other external sites linked then?? such as www.algarve.com.pt how are they different ? If I look at your reasoning to Pvanerk above: "you caught my attention by adding your links to multiple pages" there are NO multiple pages for this site you just deleted on Wikipedia. Please explain.
