I included a link to Mahoning Valley's most comprehensive local site. http://mahoningvalley.info It was removed as spam noting that wikipedia is not a link directory. If that is the policy then OK, although I feel it is absurd. Taking that policy into consideration -- WHY OH WHY is the following the ONLY link listed in the Trumbull County page? http://www.trumbullcountycvb.org/ which is DEFINITELY BAIT AND SWITCH and PROBABLY FULL OF SPYWARE GARBAGE. Your priorities are out of whack. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.25.93.126 (talk • contribs) 17:49, 9 September 2006

Dear 65.25.93.126: If you do not like the policy about what Wikipedia is not (talk) or the guideline for external links (talk), please go to those pages' talk pages to express your opinions. Consensus is important on Wikipedia.

I was not aware of the external link you mentioned in the Trumbull County, Ohio page, and I am not responsible for the inclusion of that link. (For who is, see that article's history, specifically an edit by LouI.) Also, please make article-specific comments in the specific article's talk page. Also, please be bold in removing external links that appear to be link spam, such as the link you identified on that article's page. I just now reviewed the link and think that it does indeed look like link spam, so I am removing it and trying to find a good replacement external link. --JonathanFreed 05:00, 10 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
