Thank you for keeping the [[Birmingham Parking Authority]] article up to date, Keiser1962. I do appreciate your thoroughness in linking to ''The Birmingham News'' articles referenced at al.com. Unfortunately, ''News'' articles beyond blog posts are removed from that site after a month or so. Therefore, we have an unofficial – as best I recall, it's not officially stated anywhere – policy of not linking to them to avoid having to update the BhamWiki article after the reference article is removed. But please keep up the good work! --[[User:Lkseitz|Lkseitz]] 06:31, 8 May 2008 (PDT) | Thank you for keeping the [[Birmingham Parking Authority]] article up to date, Keiser1962.

:Thank you for letting me know about the site policy. I did think about that possibility and searched to see if the al.com articles became archived later on but found they did not. I was actually going to keep up with it on a daily basis and kill the link when the article died but I guess not linking to begin with it easier. Thank you for the encouraging words. --[[User:Keiser1962|Keiser1962]] 13:31, 9 May 2008 (PDT) |
