[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Pantheism has been reverted.
Your edit here to Pantheism was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://the-philosophy-of-science.blogspot.com/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

- Postulant, I applaud your efforts to create and share knowledge and your opinions on the internet. It's a great medium, and blogs (Blogspot is the original blog host, and I have blogs there too) are an excellent and easy way to do that. The problem here is that you are essentially violating our prohibition against using original research as a source here. Even though you first wrote it on your own website, Wikipedia is not the proper vehicle for publishing it. We don't allow that here, except on rare occasions when a very notable person's blog is considered a RS for their opinions. It's not a RS here, and your COI in posting your own OR here is problematic, to say the least. Otherwise, please continue to work on your blog. It's a noble endeavor. -- Brangifer (talk) 18:48, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
