- Per WP:ELNO, adding external links to websites which add nothing new to what this article already explains, is considered inappropriate. As you admit, epidemiology is already discussed in the article, and the visual technique used by this website adds very little to that (in my opinion, even detracts to it). --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 11:59, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
