[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:PhylacteryFactory.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:PhylacteryFactory.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Adding external links to crawdaddy.wolfgangsvault.com

Hello. Are you affiliated with wolfgangsvault.com? You have been adding a large number of external links. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 02:43, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, Paul. Yes, I am affiliated with Wolfgang’s Vault. Is there a problem with the external links? They are all either to reviews, like the All Music Guide links, or to pertinent articles/interviews. I’m pretty new to editing aspect of the site; if there is a better way to integrate material, please let me know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by FenderRhodesScholar (talk • contribs) 17:23, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi FRS and thanks for your response. No, I was not concerned with any specific problems with the links, but you adding them to a large number of articles is not a good idea in the eyes of Wikipedians. Wikipedia has guidelines about conflict of interest and I would also suggest that you review the guidelines at WP:SPAMMER, which suggests, If your product (or external website) is truly relevant to an article, others will agree—try the talk page. Thanks very much and feel free to ask any questions if you find there is something unclear about those pages. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 23:43, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, COI guidelines apply to adding links for album reviews too. Thanks. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 18:35, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
