RE: Japanese red army vid link - why did you remove it?[edit]

How is this youtube video "pertinent to the article"? It does not appear to be, and therefore goes against our external links policy. See WP:YOUTUBE. Also, don't forget to sign your comments. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:38, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did watch the video. I strongly disagree that the video adds any encyclopedic value to the article, however, feel free to re-add it and I will not remove it again. If another editor feels it is unnecessary, then they will remove it. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:42, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've gotten a second opinion about the link, and have decided to remove it again. Being a possible copyright violation, not being an reliable source, and per WP:V is reason enough to remove it at this time. Also, see our policy on external links to avoid further problems with your contributions. Thanks, Rjd0060 (talk) 06:02, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to add, his second opinion was asked of me, but I was overruled, rightly so. I said I liked it and agreed that it added value, but it was a problem because it was not in English. You can see my talk page of the convo about this link. - Jeeny ^(talk) 00:16, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

December 2007[edit]

Please do not attack other editors, which you did here: User talk:Rjd0060. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Diff.. Actually, see the same section that you commented in. I did get an opinion from another editor, you just failed to see it. Rjd0060 00:03, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sure you did, kemosabe. I've put this issue on the table so OTHER EXISTING editors can put in an opinion.00:07, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Great! I'm glad you decided to use the resources available here. I've left a comment also. - Rjd0060 00:16, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
