Talk:Startyourbankroll.com

I'm eager to hear what some other people think about User:Startyourbankroll's recent promotional efforts. Personally I don't have a problem with a page like this one, because people can choose to read about your site or not as they see fit. I see no reason to be as strict as Wikipedia about adding material on onesself.

I do, however, feel differently about going to every instance of RGP or 2+2 and editing them to add your own message forum. If you can present volume numbers in the same ballpark as those two, knock yourself out. Until then, I'm going to revert your reference in the main text of Bankroll because I don't think it's warranted. I also don't have a problem with a link under external links, at least not until we get around a dozen links and start having to filter for quality based on consensus.

As with everything on this wiki, none of us has the authority to make unilateral editorial decisions. Consensus rules. I'm eager to hear what other long-time editors think about the topic. Regards, PhilipR 23:47, 19 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for following up on this, Philip. I totally agree about attempting to promote onself alongside 2+2 or RGP - it's just not reasonable.  My initial reaction to the rakeback and bankroll links is negative because I'm afraid we'll lose content in all the promotional noise.  But as long as it remains in its proper context, I can live with it.  SheridanCat 05:51, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
