Talk:Female dominance

Page contents not supported in other languages.

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 201.141.211.64 (talk) at 20:14, 22 June 2007 (Resources and Further Reading). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

I looked at the logs of this article. While http://www.femdomale.com/female-domination.html is an article that could be a reference for this article, http://www.regimeimperia.com/ is a commercial site. This is in conflict of the external links policy of wikipedia. Therefore, can someone help me here?

Resources and Further Reading

It seems to me that there are things that this article are referenced to "Female Domination". It also came to my attention that someone always tries to remove this link.

Any explanations? Please discuss it here. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Automanation (talkcontribs) 22:16, 4 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

I keep reverting the link because it does not meet the standard for external links, see Wikipedia:External links.

If that's the case, http://www.regimeimperia.com/ should also be removed.

can you explain why?

This Might Explain It

I am not the person who either puts it or removes it but I have a GREAT hypothesis and it is about commerce. According to my claim, someone is using Wikipedia to SELL a book and someone doesn't want that book to be sold either because they want to deffend the real purpose of Wikipedia (which is, obviously, non-comercial) or because they want to deffend any other interest that opposes that of the person who wants to sell the book. Like my explanation? Wouldn't be surprised if its just pure truth!

It stated in the Wikipedia:External links that sites should be linked when the sites are

  1. Sites that contain neutral and accurate material that cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article due to copyright issues, amount of detail (such as professional athlete statistics, movie or television credits, interview transcripts, or online textbooks) or other reasons.
  2. Sites with other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article, such as reviews and interviews.

"Female Domination" belongs to this category.

In other words, the problem is not the link, but apparently just the fact that it's put in External links instead of in References. :) If it was used as a reference for the article, it should be cited under "References" and not "External links"; External links sections are for additional material, not source material. 4.238.17.86 16:19, 24 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

on Atomaton

the user Atomaton's behavior is absurb. See above. He places commercial spams on Wikipedia (check his contribution history) but removes qualified links (check his contribution history).

Where should I report his misbehaviors? Any helps?

Have a third party to resolve this issue.

Hey, you can ask any admin for help, but they will tell you that the link is against Wikipedia Policy too. Take a look here Wikipedia:Resolving disputes Atom 02:06, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I took a long look at your site to be sure that my opinion was correct. But, even though I am a strong supporter of the BDSM lifestyle, I can't overlook the Wikipedia policies. Your site is a very nice site, and has lots of interesting stories on FemDom. But, on the right you ask for advertisers, and have a Dominatrix Directory of professional Dominatrices who charge for their services. You have a "Your AD here" on the right, and a Contact Us section where it says "We can place textlinks or banners on our website. Currently, our rate is $30/month for a textlink advertisement or $60/month for a banner advertisement. Your advertisement will appear on the main portion of three non-index pages of your choice. Included in the advertisement is a review of the products or services that you offer."

Your site is a commercial site, even though well disguised.

I edit hundreds of sexology and sexuality articles and see people trying to do what you are doing all of the time.

  • "Use of Wikipedia to link to a website that you own, maintain or are acting as an agent for is strongly recommended against, even if the guidelines otherwise imply that it should be linked to."

In this case, you keep re-adding this link to your own web site, even after it has been deleted by others.

Wp:el#Links_normally_to_be_avoided Says:

  • "Any site that misleads the reader by use of factually inaccurate material or unverifiable research"
  • "Links mainly intended to promote a website."

Your web site, asinteresting as it is, is primarily fiction and unverifiable research. Also, you are adding the link to promote your web site. Looking at a history of your edits, the only contributions to Wikipedia you've made since creating your account have been to add the link to your web site.

Also, external links should only rarely be used, if you have things to add the article, they should be added to the body of the article, and not in an external link. You are, in fact, using the link to try and draw people to your site. This is in effect, promoting your web site, and is not allowed by policy.

If you continue to add your web link the article, eventually you will get blocked. Thanks, and good luck with your web site.
