User talk:Budlight
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I think it's better to change your username because it resembles to a trademarked name (Anheuser-Busch's Bud Light). Anyway, welcome! --Bigtop 16:43, 2 August 2006 (UTC) why did you remove the urls??? what do you mean SPAM??? (Matchless)
[edit] cyclechaos.com
You wrote on my talk page:
- The link to my website wasn't originally added by me. I think you should consider simply whether it is a useful link. I don't see where any wikipedia policy such as what you referenced can hold up to any supposed "standards" of wikipedia. There is another such policy that states that users can't edit articles about themselves, yet Jimmy Wales the founder of wikipedia, has edited his own article numerous times.--Budlight 19:13, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
Please see WP:WEB and WP:External_links.
Cyclechaos.com has been around a few months. According to whois the domainname was registered in July of this year. I looked at the forums for chaoscycle.com and a nick by the name of 'Budlight' is listed as the administrator. This user account was registered in July of this year, also. Alexa.com shows that this site is not in the top 100,000 sites and it get very few page views. It is a new site and doesn't have "substantial longevity" to be in external links. It is non-notable because the forums are virtually empty and the site get very few hits on its own.
Therefore, it appears to me that you are using Wikipedia to promote your own site. The link to your site has been removed more than once before, and it is unlikely to stick for the reasons I gave above. In fact, intend to revert your change if someone hasn't already done so.

Please do not strike out other users comments on talk pages. It is considered rude because it implies that the original user retracted his statments. If you wish to make a comment on another user's statements, please leave a note on the article talk page or the talk page of the user. Continuing to inappropriately refactor other user's comments could result in your being blocked for disruption. Please reserve the use of the strike tag for your own comments.
