Trends and Innovations for K-12 Ed Tech Leaders/Part II (filter log)
Description
I was attempting to add a chapter to the Trends and Innovations for K-12 Ed Tech Leaders page as an assignment for a course I am taking. I'm not sure what triggered the error as the only links I included were links to the resources I used in creating my chapter.

Did you check the resource? It's an excellent job finding tool. I thought the point of wikibooks was to share valuable information? Can you assist me?

J created the page "manifeste transbiologiste" then edited it to add a link to the original blog the text was published. So I was not at all changing many links in pages... I only tried to add one little tiny link to the source on the page I just created.

This project only accepts English language texts, so even if you'd been able to create the page, it would have been deleted. The filter correctly identified the attempt to add a non-authoritative link (a blog) multiple times. QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 09:38, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

I was trying to upload information based on the growth cycle of the train system in Sydney Australia. However when i go to publish the wikibook I get pulled up for adding too many external links over other wikibooks. This does not make sense as I newly created this account just to upload this book. As I am new to wikibooks I had to look at edits from other wikibooks from the same transportation deployment casebook to understand how to format it. But I never added any links to them nor did i edit them. Can you arrange a solution?\

Innovation Happens Elsewhere

Initial adding of a book that contains a lot of http:// references, gets blocked. I've had to mangle them... not sure if this bot can be improved, but I can see it hindering the addition of some useful books that reference internet sources. Perhaps look at the distribution of the http:// links through the document - or provide better advice for steps to follow before adding a book with a lot of links.
