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 Andy Lewis (DareDevil) has been reverted.
Your edit here to Andy Lewis (DareDevil) 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://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzVaT2Cd8n4) 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 media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
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. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 06:15, 25 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

  • Just to add to the Bot's statement: you can't use that YouTube, I'm afraid. It has to be an official channel only. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gorgak25 (talkcontribs) 06:16, 25 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • A bit puzzled as it looked like external links to YouTube are okay and the Wikipedia guidelines I was looking at didn't mention "official channels only", not that I'm sure what that means. My YouTube channel is not a YouTube partner type site and is not about ads at all, but perhaps that's not what's meant by "official channel". Links under References did include YouTube and looked to support portions of the article and "achievements", so the Yosemite Falls slackline feat seemed good for External links. So thank you (person or Bot - Gorgak25), and though I don't entirely get it, I'll just log out and back away slowly...
