Link only answers are discouraged, the best way to tell if your answer could be considered a "link only answer" is temporarily delete all of the links in your question and ask yourself "Is this question still useful?" Links in answers should be written with the assumption that all links within them will go dead and the answer needs to contain at least enough information that another person could find the detailed information on their own with the summary information provided in the answer.
