No those only inserting links are not part of our community.
Those who police thes kinds of link need to engage in a dialogue with the person who put up the link based on the presumption that the link was inserted in good faith.
Generaly most edits do not require dialogue untill they are disputed. People are generaly quite happy to answer questions as to why links were removed (and of course there are edit summeries).
The editors who persist in adding bad links can only be judged on the basis of multiple insertions.
Depends. Sometimes yes sometimes no.
The admins who continue making perfunctory removals without dialogue perhaps need to spend time in a desysop purgatory so that they get the message.
You see there are people who read stuff like this
