WikiProject External links tasks you can do:

WikiProject External links	This box: (watch • edit • changes • add / remove a task)
Open Tasks: Fix the broken links in the Featured Articles using the Checklinks tool Intelligent vehicle technologies (edit \| talk \| history \| protect \| delete \| links \| watch \| logs \| views) - Looking for a third opinion on some of the links in the article that appear to be commercial firms. Trying to avoid an edit war. Information Technology Infrastructure Library (edit \| talk \| history \| protect \| delete \| links \| watch \| logs \| views) There has been a long debate on external links to be included, third opinions invited in particular for the forum websites referenced that may be useful but are not discussed in the main article. Extreme pornography (edit \| talk \| history \| protect \| delete \| links \| watch \| logs \| views) This is about the term being used by the UK's Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 but is obviously a controversial topic with a number of arguably useful pornographic example links added 2009 swine flu pandemic (edit \| talk \| history \| protect \| delete \| links \| watch \| logs \| views) As a hot news topic this article can suffer from excessive links from dubious un-official sources Model_View_ViewModel (edit \| talk \| history \| protect \| delete \| links \| watch \| logs \| views) The Open source MVVM frameworks section contains links to several products that would fail notability as having no coverage in independent sources, e.g. Mugen MVVM Toolkit. Is this linkspam? - Pointillist (talk) 09:28, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:24, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A Motorcycle Wiki[edit]

Hey Retrodouggy, Here's an opportunity to put your expertise on motorcycles. Cycle Chaos is a Wiki-styled web site that needs a lot of help from people who love bikes and can contribute more information and even more manufacturers. There's virtually no problems with administrators and it seems free to edit without any trouble (even with images). You seem to be someone who can offer some content, images, categories, that may be lacking. My user page is: Cycle Chaos, Noles1984 so stop by and say hello and see if you can be of help. Cheers.

Edit summaries[edit]

Just a hint - please leave edit summaries. Without an edit summary it takes time to figure out whether edits like this are constructive or not, and people don't look at the article talk page right away. Welcome to the project. I see that you are on something called "Wikiproject External links"; be prepared for some argument from the more aggressive of the spammers here, but don't let them wear you down.
