Is there a particular reason links to this site have been added to every restaurant category?
I don't have anything against the site, and it seems to be a decent idea, but it does seem to be endorsing a third-party service and I'm sure how I feel about that.

It seems like link spamming to me. What gives?

Inappropriate multiple (27) insertions promoting one website which is
asking for "donations", but it is a .com not a .org. A laudable goal
does not mean RocWiki should get into "promotion".
I can see a couple of insertions at Restaurants, and writing a review
maybe, but not this.

I left a link on Local Websites and on the Restaurant Review portion
of the Restaurants page. That's what all the other review sites get.
I don't see why this one is special.

I put this up.
It is a restaurant-related website that offers people the opportunity to let people comment on food/service issues in a non-confrontational manner.
I know the guy who is doing it--he's my chiropractor. It's FREE...he's not making anything off it. The donations are merely *requested* to pay for it and maybe cover making some actual pre-printed durable cards in the future.
I'd already put it on the local websites but thought if people saw it on the restaurant sections it might get him some traffic. It shouldn't take away anything from RocWiki in any manner.
Sorry to have gone overkill--I just think the site has real potential and I am actively using it. No offense intended
Rott-thanks for leaving the link on the restaurant review page.

Sorry for the 2nd email-had to catch a shower before they shut off my water for line repairs.
Anyways I had planned to reverse those posts I made but I slept in a bit due to a continuing sinus infection and Rott caught them first.
We will be linked on VisitOwl shortly.
