Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without
citing a
reliable source, as you did to
The Profit, is not consistent with our policy of
verifiability. Take a look at the
welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with
Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.

Please remove your link you added to the torrent of this film. I am in the process of trying to get this article to "
Good Article" status and your reinsertion of this link will hurt my chances of being able to improve this article's quality status, which I have been working on. Thanks,

Please also remove the
Digg.com link. I am in the process of working on this article, and the presence of the piratebay and Digg.com links will hinder that process. Eventually if the article can someday get to
WP:FA status it could get on the
Main Page, but if you insist on reinserting these links which are inappropriate in an encyclopedic article - that will never happen.

Are either of these links official links released by the film's producers itself of the film?

Even though we have not violated
WP:3RR with regard to these 2 links, we can't go back and forth like this, it is just not productive. I will ask for some outside input through a
WP:RfC.

Wikipedia has extant policies regarding what sorts of links can be kept in a wikipedia article. Some of the links you have argued for in the article
The Profit are in clear violation of those policies, and by wikipedia policies can and should be removed immediately. Please do not attempt to reinsert them. Doing so might well be seen as constituting
vandalism. Considering that this article is already on probation as per the Arbritration Committee, as can be seen at the top of the article's talk page, any act of vandalism is sufficient cause for an administrator, such as myself, to block immediately. If you honestly believe that the links should be included, please give your reasoning on the article's talk page. However, having reviewed the situation myself, you will have to provide a very strong argument for that to happen. Thank you.
