Dear Mr. Helpsome, I really don't understand why you changed the external links of those pages. Indeed aviation-accidents dot net is the ultimate resource for aviation accidents reports : that wikipedia is a page related to an accident report and having a link to the official pdf report is a must. I think you should reconsider the change. Thank you.
Mr. Helpsome, you removed many names off of the Cheek surname, these people were very important, influential,and prominent members of the Cheek family. I am angered that you removed the people from the page for no reason. As a fellow Wikipedia nember, I highly suggest you put the names back or i will be forced to contact Wikipedia administrators and have this decision repealed.
I know all three of the Cheek family members that I added and had their consent for adding their names. The information about then was also factual, for it is available on numerous articles throughout the Internet. You yourself should do some fact checking aswell. Instead of being a Know-it-all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charliecheek1979 ( talk • contribs) 03:26, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi, helpsome. I realize I initially posted too many links on pages of loose relevance, but I'm still not clear why you've removed my recent edits for the reasons I mentioned in my edit summaries. They are spot on the topic and indeed replace dead links to the same interviews posted 2007 and 2008. I realize entries should not be a collection of links, but under the "external links" section are these links not appropriate? Considering for example that they are interviews with the subjects themselves? Thanks and I appreciate your patience. Poodledog ( talk) 01:35, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi, helpsome. I did add those original links to those pages, but they were live at the time. They're to a student radio program at the University of Toronto, which I think did a great job connecting with academics and notable people about the environment. The original host site has since gone down, and I thought it would be great if those interviews were still accessible to a wider audience. Wikipedia enables that wider reach and accessibility. And I did read your links and those of JaconaFrere. Thank you! They were helpful! But they don't explain why you removed my recent edits. And I didn't delete the message to hide anything. In fact I thought JaconaFrere restored it. I could if you like. Thanks again for your attention to this! Poodledog ( talk) 02:04, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

This is crucial for several Wikipedia sites/articles: ()System Design ()Modular Design ()Configuration design ()Morphological analysis (problem solving)
Before (Aug. 2014), my references (to two books at Springer: 1998, 2006; to my site with description of my course on Sytem Design) were included into the above-mentioned articles and it was iseful for readers.
Wy my materials were deleted? It is not Ok for readers.
Generally, You are not responsable to delete my materials from the CS/IT and Engineering/Management Science.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not remove citations or information sourced through citations simply because a link to a source is not working, as you did to Lucy Lightfoot. Dead links should not be deleted. Instead, please repair or replace the link, if possible, and ensure properly sourced information is retained. Often, a live substitute link can be found. Links not used as references, notes or citations are not as important, such as those listed in the "External links" or "Further reading" sections, but bad links in those sections should also be fixed if possible. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Auric talk 20:00, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Dear helpsome, I am at a bit of a loss as to why you've removed indiscriminately pretty much every link I've posted. The interviews are with or about the people identified on the wiki page, or about the issue listed on the wiki page. They do not advertise or promote any product or site. I've read the wiki pillars and cannot understand why you've removed my links. Why remove Nasr interview from Nasr site? Why remove Miner interview from Miner site? Indeed the Nasr interview has been up since the interview originally aired in 2007. Indeed with some of your edits you reverted from my live link to a dead link, which originally led to the same interview (e.g. Naess, Deep ecology, Nasr). In future, I agree with you that I need to be more selective in my postings. My apologies. I am new to wikipedia. However, I felt that you removed too many of my postings--postings which are immediately relevant to the topic identified. I reposted select links to immediately relevant sites (e.g. Nasr to Nasr). If you disagree, please let me know. I will not engage in an "editwar," which means if you continue to remove all my links, I will not repost them. Thanks for your attention. Kindly, Poodledog ( talk) 17:12, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Helpsome -- I hope you don't mind that I have just retitled an ANI section that you had opened, to convert from a somewhat loaded label to wp:ANI#User:Haffy881 and copyright issues, a neutral label more compliant with guideline wp:TALKNEW.

It's just that I am hoping to change, with others, what is usual practice.

You have deleted the link to SPMF on the weka page. Why ?

I received you warning. However, your practices are not honest. You cannot promote business that sell services, such as the ANNA Service Bureau which charges $10,000 or more per year to access their database when the ISIN Organization is FREE to search their database.
I will also report this to wiki authorities as this is unfair monopolistic practices. ISIN codes are an open source, free service for all and the ISIN Organization people do not charge for ISIN database look up service, but the other people you quote do!!!

Hi, Helpsome. You took off my description of Pres. Clinton's attorney discipline for lack of sources, while I was gathering them. First one is Illinois Public Media, Amy Guita, May 29, 2000, Legal Issues in the News. Second one is Duncan Campbell, Oct. 1, 2000, "Lewinsky Scandal Ends as Clinton is Disbarred," theguardian.com.

Hi Helpsome,
On Aug. 2014 and on Jan. 2015 I have tried to add my new book on modular system design (without success):
Mark Sh. Levin, Modular System Design and Evaluation. Springer, 2015.
Now, this material is the best one for modular system design, for morphological analysis/design, for configuration system design.
This is crucial for several Wikipedia sites/articles: ()System Design ()Modular Design ()Configuration design ()Morphological analysis (problem solving)
Before (Aug. 2014), my references (to two books at Springer: 1998, 2006; to my site with description of my course on Sytem Design) were included into the above-mentioned articles and it was iseful for readers.
Wy my materials were deleted? It is not Ok for readers.
Generally, You are not responsable to delete my materials from the CS/IT and Engineering/Management Science.
Cheers,
Mark Sh. Levin http://www.mslevin.iitp.ru/
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not remove citations or information sourced through citations simply because a link to a source is not working, as you did to Lucy Lightfoot. Dead links should not be deleted. Instead, please repair or replace the link, if possible, and ensure properly sourced information is retained. Often, a live substitute link can be found. Links not used as references, notes or citations are not as important, such as those listed in the "External links" or "Further reading" sections, but bad links in those sections should also be fixed if possible. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Auric talk 20:00, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Eleventh Hour (branding), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Eleventh Hour.

Afternoon Helpsome,
Thanks for the message. I believe the info I was trying to place in 'cherry picker' has been removed by yourself I believe as spam. The page in question is an A-Z Glossary of Powered Access Terms (which 'cherry picker' is a slang term of). If I've entered it incorrectly in terms of protocol then please accept my apologies but I think you'll find that the resource page is an exhaustive list if cherry picker terms. I would request that you reconsider. Regards Guy Willett — Preceding unsigned comment added by Monjty44 ( talk • contribs) 11:52, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Helpsome, what's the story with your numerous reverts with edit comment "spam from Billywcollins"?

Dear helpsome, I am at a bit of a loss as to why you've removed indiscriminately pretty much every link I've posted. The interviews are with or about the people identified on the wiki page, or about the issue listed on the wiki page. They do not advertise or promote any product or site. I've read the wiki pillars and cannot understand why you've removed my links. Why remove Nasr interview from Nasr site? Why remove Miner interview from Miner site? Indeed the Nasr interview has been up since the interview originally aired in 2007. Indeed with some of your edits you reverted from my live link to a dead link, which originally led to the same interview (e.g. Naess, Deep ecology, Nasr). In future, I agree with you that I need to be more selective in my postings. My apologies. I am new to wikipedia. However, I felt that you removed too many of my postings--postings which are immediately relevant to the topic identified. I reposted select links to immediately relevant sites (e.g. Nasr to Nasr). If you disagree, please let me know. I will not engage in an "editwar," which means if you continue to remove all my links, I will not repost them. Thanks for your attention. Kindly, Poodledog ( talk) 17:12, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Dear helpsome, Thanks for your feedback. But note that the link on Arne Naess that you reverted to is dead. I was trying to replace it with a live link to the same interview. The host site no longer hosts the interviews. I was trying to replace live links on pages that hosted them before, albeit using youtube which I guess is a mistake. I'll leave it be then. And although I posted on wiki a while back, I haven't really been on it since. I've only run into difficulty posting these youtube videos!

Hi Helpsome -- I hope you don't mind that I have just retitled an ANI section that you had opened, to convert from a somewhat loaded label to wp:ANI#User:Haffy881 and copyright issues, a neutral label more compliant with guideline wp:TALKNEW. Please understand I have nothing against you, that I have similarly re-titled other ANI section titles recently, and that I regard your title choice as within usual recent practice. It's just that I am hoping to change, with others, what is usual practice. I have no involvement with the topic or parties involved in the specific ANI discussion, and I don't mean to disrupt that discussion by making this small, separate point. sincerely, -- do ncr am 21:15, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

You have deleted the link to SPMF on the weka page. Why ? SPMF is a well-known data mining library used in more than 160 research papers (see SPMF website - citations page), and has many users (more than than 70,000 visitors to the website last year), and was also reviewed in published in a famous peer reviewed machine learning journal (Journal of Machine Learning Research). It is thus relevant to mention that it as a data mining library that is an alternative to Weka. If you have a problem with the writting style, you can edit the text but it should not be deleted. Please revert that delete.
Then read WP:SPAM again. From WP:LINKSPAM: "Adding external links to an article or user page for the purpose of promoting a website or a product is not allowed, and is considered to be spam." Helpsome ( talk) 02:27, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

I received you warning. However, your practices are not honest. You cannot promote business that sell services, such as the ANNA Service Bureau which charges $10,000 or more per year to access their database when the ISIN Organization is FREE to search their database.
I will also report this to wiki authorities as this is unfair monopolistic practices. ISIN codes are an open source, free service for all and the ISIN Organization people do not charge for ISIN database look up service, but the other people you quote do!!! You are promoting a massive conglomerate company run by S&P. You speak of SPAM and promotion: this is what his page is.

Om Ma Ni Padme Hum is a Tibetan/ Sankrit chant. The Wikipedia page has references to literature , music and other popular culture where such chants were used. Although I don't probably give it too much importance whether an addition be made to the page... I find the reverting of my edits very meaningless. Either Let me know where does this fit as 'soapboxing or promotion of content' , or leave the edit as it is. You may validate them and remove if required , I do not suppose this can be treated as promotion of content.

Hey, Helpsome first off I want to thank you. I am new to Wikipedia and am still figuring out how all this works. With that in mind, this product that I am trying to put on the Raspberry Pi page (Piper) is a product that I feel resonates well with the page. However, I am learning about not adding promotional content, but at the same time, I strong feel that this is a project that is relevant to Raspberry Pi and DIY. If there is any way you could help me include that inside the webpages, without making it promotional in any way, shape, or form, I would greatly appreciate it.
