So someone is looking to pay someone else to write a Wikipedia article. I'm guessing the client will seek favourable coverage, not neutral. It doesn't say that this article was a work of paid public relations, but it sure does make me look at this article with a more critical eye. --[[User:Jdlh|Jdlh ]] | [[User talk:Jdlh|Talk]] 21:57, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

== Advertisement, Speedy Delete Tag ==

If someone could explain to me where in the article I can find blatant advertisement or a promotional tone? The only problem I see with the article is the lack of references, but the tone is not promotional, but rather factual (assuming that what is said about the history of the firm and their products is true).

Way too many unconnected links!

Fair use rationale for Image:Taylor.gif

Image:Taylor.gif 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 fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:14, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article as role model for paid Wikipedia entries

There is a most interesting Craigslist ad dated July 16, 2006. It reads in part:

I am looking someone who can setup a Wikipedia page for my client. I am looking for something very similar to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_Guitars . You must have very good knowledge of all the ins and outs of Wikipedia as I do not want the page to be removed. Looking for a flat rate. If successful there could be many more jobs like this....

So someone is looking to pay someone else to write a Wikipedia article. I'm guessing the client will seek favourable coverage, not neutral. It doesn't say that this article was a work of paid public relations, but it sure does make me look at this article with a more critical eye. --Jdlh | Talk 21:57, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
