-**Why won't you link samples from my repositories?**
+### Why won't you link samples from my repositories?
 
-This is due to liability reasons. As samples are linked from the official SharePoint Developer portal, we need to ensure that we control the information published within the samples. We can't cross-link to non-Microsoft controlled repositories or articles as we don't control that content and we need to guarantee that information remains available as long as it's cross-linked from Microsoft controlled sites.
