Reverted back to a version prior to the mass deletion of content on this page. Just because an article describes a business or website does not mean it is an advertisement. If you feel some thing is not accurate or could be considered an ad please explain here. Explaining how a site works or images of the evolution of the site are not advertisements. 70.131.83.65 00:02, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:FAQFARM.JPG

Image:FAQFARM.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a cheeseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee rock ghjglhguhfyudctfdu,b

[edit] Please Confirm that Article Meets Standards

I have taken some time today to update the article on WikiAnswers to sound less like an advertising piece. Would you kindly check to make certain that it meets guidelines? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.16.72.200 (talk) 20:51, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Your edits made a big difference in tightening the content and explaining concisely how the process works. You had reverted my edit that removed the logo section, and it took me a few minutes to figure out the infobox logo was the similar answers.com logo, which I replaced with the correct wikianswers logo and removed the logo section. I also made additional edits consistent with wikistyle. I think it's too soon to remove the advertising tag; the article's references are mostly self-references to the website, and the content should be shortened considerably -- removing the table of external links to topic, consolidating most of the sections and bulleted list into one or two sections and condensing the mission and principles into one or two sentences. Adding external news articles would also help justify adding any additional article length or keeping what's already there. Flowanda | Talk 23:39, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
