[edit] Article has 5 links to Rosencomet.com - but hardly anything else is referenced

Why are there so disproportionately many links to Rosencomet.com? Timmy12 21:34, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Because the editor that added that information cited it. You could always add more citations to the article yourself. Ekajati (yakity-yak) 21:35, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

El-Dabh's participation in the Association for Consciousness Exploration activities is a relatively minor aspect of his career, but the editor who added those is, I believe, the president of that organization, and has assiduously added similar text to the Wikipedia pages of many other musicians who have appeared at his festivals. There was recently a question of whether it was proper that this involved self promotion and the links were added as references to at least prove that the information was accurate. The question of whether there needs to be an entire paragraph about his participation in the ACE festivals is another question entirely. I hope this explains things.
