Talk:Begging You

Inline link

As far as I recall we don't do inline external links, am I right? --John (talk) 06:00, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

How is it?. U refer to the artwork of the album?. We do external links all the time and this is an interesting info.Kim FOR sure (talk) 06:05, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Why does it have to be an internal link rather than an external one in the final section? It seems fairer to clarify that it's an external link by putting it in the section for such. --John (talk) 06:35, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

In the present form, it has continuity, context, clarity and rythm (even beauty). Either way i see no reason for deleting the interesting info as "someone" did.Kim FOR sure (talk) 07:16, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Does it pass WP:EL? --John (talk) 07:43, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Seems a reliable and serious source with medium res pics, devoted to the group. (Homepage http://homepage.ntlworld.com/elephantstoned)Kim FOR sure (talk) 18:45, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

It's a fansite, no? --John (talk) 19:08, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Its been a long talk now. If you feel good do more questions, but seems clear to me that the link is neutral and positive for the project.Kim FOR sure (talk) 20:13, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

I don't think so, per WP:ELNO. --John (talk) 00:47, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Agreed, this is a link to personal homepage, also a copyright violating EL. Please read and understand WP:ELNO. I have removced it on those grounds. Jezhotwells (talk) 11:39, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Again throwing more burocracy (not arguments) in this case. See [] or WP:Common Sense. In any case I think we can put this (as John proposed) in an external link, attending a low resolution, no tripod image taken in a public exhibition.Kim FOR sure (talk) 21:30, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

No, please read WP:EL. Wikipedia has quite firm rules on linking to copyright violations. You may consider it bureaucracy but this is policy that has been achieved by the consensus of a lot of editors. You are welcome to raise the issue at WP:Village pump (policy), but until it is changed it must be adhered to. Try reading WP:ELPOINTS#Important points to remember #11.

John proposed the external link and it fits in fair use. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kim FOR sure (talk • contribs) 04:36, 7 September 2010

I also agree with removal of the link, per WP:ELNO as well as for the copyright violation. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 01:45, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

I, too, agree with the link's removal. --13² 02:47, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
