Screw EL
Hi, I understand that the EL link you keep removing is to a commercial site, however it has useful information, especially the images. I believe the link qualifies per WP:ELYES point 3; The images cannot be incorporated into Wikipedia because of copyright issues. As such, it should be restored, unless you can find a non-commercial link to replace it. Wizard191 (talk) 20:44, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- The website may be copyrighted but the information can still be put into the article. Bolt Depot does not hold copyrights to the head markings or specs on metric or sae bolts. The info is easily obtained from other sources. --Weetoddid (talk) 20:58, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- I looked at your contribs and see your active in removing spam so I won't revert if it goes back. I just hate to see the state of the external links sections these days. --Weetoddid (talk) 21:07, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- You are correct that they don't hold a copyright on the marking layouts, however we can't just copy their images. I'll try and create an SVG version of the images today and incorporate the info into the article so that this becomes a moot point. Wizard191 (talk) 22:13, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
