External links[edit]
I trimmed and moved the link you added to the Susan B. Anthony biography.
The first problem is that you put your link in its own header, which is wrong. It is an external link and so it belongs with other external links.
The second problem is that it is not necessary for the Susan B. Anthony reader to have a link to the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College. Adding that link is promotional, so I removed it.
The third problem is that there was already a warning against adding more links in the Susan B. Anthony biography, but you added one anyway.
Please restrict your future links to the right section, without extraneous promotional links. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 19:08, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
June 2017[edit]
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Patricia Beck. 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 websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Again, please restrict your external link additions to the correct section and without adding promotional links. Binksternet (talk) 20:07, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
