I have no problem with those edits, only the links. I did mention "official sites plus Wikipedia" as the links we generally allow on major pages (for a variety of reasons, but that's our choice to make). External links and Advertising are mentioned in our [[Grand Theft Wiki: Cleanup| Cleanup]] and [[Grand Theft Wiki:Behaviour|Behaviour]] policies. However, our [[Grand Theft Wiki:Enforcement|Enforcement Policy]] also give staff the discretion to interpret [[Grand Theft Wiki:Policy|Policy]] for the best interests of the wiki, rather than purely following strict codified rules. Lastly, as this is my website, I can make a final decision as to what is allowed here (as explained [[Grand Theft Wiki:About Policy|here]]). So, regardless of anything else, I ask you not to link to that site on this wiki. My reason for that I hope is clear - I don't believe it adds value in those locations, I don't have a reason to link to that site rather than any others, and I believe the motivation to be to advertise that site. Hopefully that's understood. [[User:Gboyers|gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 13:40, 8 April 2015 (BST) | I have no problem with those edits, only the links.

: Okay, it is crystal clear now. You should have began with "my site, my rules" thing from the start.
