Hi there Itnoby and Welcome to Wikipedia! I wanted to get in touch about your recent edits looking to add links to articles around inflammation. There is a guidance article on Wikipedia's policy on External Links here: WP:EL which you might find useful. Unfortunately you will not be able to link out to this particular site on Wikipedia. Best wishes, --PaulWicks (talk) 12:09, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I know sometimes the policies can seem counter-intuitive. The greatest issue I have with the policy is it means patient advocacy groups can't have links on their disease pages! Still, the intent is to make a level playing field and an encyclopedic resource so I can understand the motivation. I preserved your other edits to the article on inflammation, thanks for those! --PaulWicks (talk) 16:19, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
