Revision as of 14:31, 11 October 2007
While I do appreciate that you create video pages, it's not very helpful to create (almost) empty ones - because it looks like a page has been created, while there's actually no content.
If you don't intend to create a full-blown video page, please don't create one at all - it's less confusing for all of us. ;)
Thank you.
- I needed a link for the blog but if you would rather I dont add a link then fine.--modelmotion 07:48, 11 October 2007 (CDT)
