I'm not sure how this usertalk works, But I'm now aware ages ago when I did I made an article about Driver Madness.
At the moment I'm editing in mirrors to old driver sites. That i have mirrored and there should be no problem with that.
You removed the link I put in Driver Vegas
http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Driver:_Vegas
The official site no longer works and I replaced it as a mirror!
- Your contributions are exclusively adding links to the site drivermadness.net. That's spamming. MER-C 10:28, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
Then so would adding links to the official sites. Gamespot, IGN, ect...
I don't see any problem, I have worked hard to mirror each and every one of these sites to share them with the community and I'd like to know my time isn't going to waste. My driver fansite contains everything everyone should know about the driver series and it should be known.
The links I provide go to pages with loads of content.
So really there should be no problem!
I believe that posting links to the mirrored sites is not a violation of Wikipedia Standards, as the original sites are no longer avaliable. As long as User:Madness.productions states the fact that it is a link to a mirror of the original site, and the original is no longer avaliable, there should be no problem. It is by no means spam, as it provides access to the official site with further information on the game, relavant to the page it is posted on. There is no other place for the official sites to be found as they no loner exist at their original domains. Lseven7 03:01, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi Madness.productions, Just wanted to let you know this edit [1] created a talk page that few people are likely to see (unless like me they are checking through your edits to see what problems you're having on talk pages), the page it's attached to is a bot generated page and only used by humans occasionally. You may be better off posting a new section at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Spam. You also mischaracterized the discussion at WT:EL, which included a number of caveats and did not in anyway endorse the idea that a fansite is OK just so long as it's related; nor is that discussion to do with whether a link is spam or not - which is technically a matter of how the link is added, not what the content of the site is. If you start out like that, you're unlikely to see a productive conversation. -- SiobhanHansa 09:05, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Your recent edits
editHi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 09:47, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
I have always done this. I may have forgotten once or twice, maybe this is why your messaging me.
