Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Wikipedia:Sandbox do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.Template:Do not delete The Wikipedia sandbox is for users to experiment, but you are abusing it by placing youtube video links over and over with no other content. This is abuse of the sandbox due it being spam links and you should stop this at once. Joel M. (talk) 17:44, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure if this is a shared IP adress.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:32, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The links were not repeated, If you look carfully you see the urls are different. I am experimenting to see what links exist and work.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:32, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I inspected the videos and found that even if the URL is slightly different every time, it is the exact video. Also, these videos don't have a clear encyclopedic value.
The video could have encyclopedic value by the extremely unique viewing history of the video.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Could someone make an article about it?--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
By adding the list of Youtbue videos URL to the sandbox, you will be seen as engaging in spamming. If your intentions are ligament, I apoligize for the misunderstanding, but, you should not continue to list these videos anywhere on Wikipedia. You can check the videos using another method.
Could I add it to the other Sandboxes mentioned?--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You spelled 'legitament' wrong--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
What other method could I use where it is linked?--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thankyou.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
After reviewing the history, I see you have added the list of Youtube URLs over eight times after it has been removed. You have been warned about the issue, refraining from doing so may lead the involvement of an administrator.-- ℐℴℯℓ ℳ. ℂℌAT ✐ 18:48, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If people do not want them they could just delete it.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is not as bad as putting it in an article.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I thought the sandbox was a good place for stuff like that. It is regulary cleaned anyway. I thought it was a good idea, but if you do not like it you could discuss another way with me.--75.139.111.29 (talk) 18:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Please, when you reply to a comment, don't reply within the comment of the other person. Doing so makes it hard to read.
I did not comment in the middle of other comments, I indented.
I omitted to mention a method for you to test your links due to the fact I believed you knew how, I apologize. You can copy & paste the links into the web browser one at a time. Of course this is very tedious. A better method would be to email your your self the links. By doing so, you can click each link quickly. I hope the suggestions help you.
Yes that helped, but where can I do that on Wikipedia?
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask at the Help Desk.
Thank you, -- ℐℴℯℓ ℳ. ℂℌAT ✐ 19:08, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
