[edit] Linking to MobyGames

Please could you explain [1] where you appear to have linked a Wikipedia article to an external website which has a shallower article than the WP one on it? I just thought I would remind you of WP:EL? Thanks--BozMo talk 10:44, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

As I see, that website contains screenshots and cover photos, which cannot be added to Wikipedia under GFDL, and also detailed credits. These reasons match WP:EL#What should be linked p.3:
"Sites that contain neutral and accurate material that cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article due to copyright issues, amount of detail (such as professional athlete statistics, movie or television credits, interview transcripts, or online textbooks) or other reasons."
But thak you for turning my attention to the MobyGames controversy. From now on, I will check if the MobyGames page contains any useful information before adding a link, instead of doing it blindly. --Krótki 14:07, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
That's fine, and I understand totally that you added the links in good faith (although there are others whose faith was less good). The images/screenshots issue though is a little more complicated since I don't think MobyGames possibly owns image copyrights so either the images are a copyright violation there (in which case we should not in general link to copyvio sites) or the images constitute fair use and we can use them too. That's not to say we should never link to MG as we've both agreed: but doing so for the sake of images which they do not appear to own cannot be a good reason. --BozMo talk 15:03, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your revert on MUD client

Most of the items listed on that page are as notable as the one I listed, yet you complain only about mine. Thus, I find your point moot. Heres the answer to your question about wintin - You seem to have a link to it yourself, as you support it wholeheartedly. So, you delete mine, I delete yours. I didn't start this, you did.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:A5200 PacMan.png

Thanks for uploading Image:A5200 PacMan.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
