Please stop changing "Other Websites" to "External Links". The discussion on Wikipedia:Simple talk shows that we have decided to use "Other Websites" and thus it is not the "proper langauge." Thank you, -  BrownE34  talk  contribs  18:39, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well if you decided, than make sure you tell everybody, it's really bad, i mean normal wikipedia does not do this, what does other website mean if there are no other sites in the first place prior or after?

I didn't decide anything, the decision was reached by consensus. If you wish to let everyone know you disagree than bring it up on Wikipedia:Simple talk. I believe the decision was reached because "External" is not a simple word. If there are no other websites relevant to the topic or no other websites cited than the section does not need to exist on the article page. I would urge you to create a user name as well and log in when you contribute. -  BrownE34  talk  contribs \

Well, I disagree with you, external links, may not be simple, but it is the norm to use that word.

There have been two discussions on "External links" vs. "Other websites". The first one can be found here and the second one can be found here. The result was to go ahead and change it to "Other websites". You are certainly welcome to add your opinion to the discussion though. · Tygartl1·talk· 19:25, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OK, whatever, i still say external links makes more sense~!

If you would like to email me (or any other user), just go to my user page and click on "Email this user" in the toolbox on the left side of the page. · Tygartl1·talk· 18:55, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Will do!
