Additions to links...[edit]

Add Prof. Sick to University of Kansas alumni pages? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Attymediator (talk • contribs) 23:15, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion of Ext Link addition[edit]

I have reverted the first (and so far the 2 only) contributions by Sledgepotk (talk · contribs) to any undeleted article, which were made on the accompanying article. They added this link to the "External links" section of the accompanying article:

Gary Sick, A sickly Leftover from Carter's Administration

as the section's new first item. (BTW, the first of the two edits added an accurately cited title, while the second falsified the title: the true title describes the article's subject, Gary Sick as "... A sick Leftover ..." while the 2nd edit serves only to disguise the level of offensiveness of the title.)
(Further, the listed external link is not only to a blog, but to a specific article on that blog whose first order of business is bragging about being "inches away from punching" the bio's subject, the subject being a "deluded old fool [who] deserved to have his dentures knocked down his gullet" and "senile", and that he "really ought to shut up and retire.")
The blog in question, tonal violence and ad hominem not withstanding, could conceivably be suitable for mention or citation in an article about PoV debate on post-Shah Iran, but its listing on the accompanying article was contrary to WP policy.
