"official" media tie-ins and related products

Many popular media products have "official" products, often available only from that production group or company. The website for those products would be primarily directed toward selling a product; but the product is part of the "official website" for the entity. This appears to place a "links normally to be avoided" #4 into conflict with "What should be linked to" #1. Thoughts? --LQ 13:53, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

That list of links to be avoided is prefaced with "except for a link to a page that is the subject of the article or is an official page of the subject of the article." So such a link would not be prima facie prohibited. -- Satori Son 14:30, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
