@jeffery, mentioning Planet math here is advertising? Really? When did that become advertising?
Hmmmm, still wondering. Its not as if the link is to Joe's personal website or something. Its a website known by many. Joe is just bringing up an issue and I believe its great considering the matter than banning the matter saying its advertising.
"Not an advertising group"? Apart from the mailing list of Wikiversity, where else can discussions of this sort be held?
I'm in this mailing list, Wikimania, Wikipedia, and other mailing lists. Links are posted to references and stuffs like that. They're all Wikimedia mailing list, but how come such links never get categorized as adverts but are used in discussion?
Is this "not advertising group" idea applied to only Wikiversity?
