Electric mirror

The page does look like an ad can you source outside refrences that can meet WP:N and make it not look like a promo for the company? (it looks like a good page but needs some work still) Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 02:28, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

The article lacks encyclopedic content, imho. Encyclopedic content on a company would include such things as who founded it, its stock performance, how it may have revolutionized a product or industry, community impact, or other significant data that a reader is likely to want to know about a subject. An article about a single company, showcasing its products, does read like an advertisement. I am sure that your intentions were good when you added the article, and I am equally sure that you cold improve this article by adding encyclopedia content. Perhaps if you research the technology behind some of the company's products and/ or look at other Wikipedia articles about companies, you would get some good ideas.

Thanks for the tips. I do plan on adding more stuff about company history when I can find it, to balance out the article a little. And I'll try to find some links and references. Squidge37 20:44, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

re: Help with a link? (Bee Gees)

I added Billy Corgan and Robert Smith to the "songwriting success" cover section, but Robert Smith's link goes to a disambiguation page. It should actually go here [1] but I'm not sure how to link there directly without changing the name in the text. If someone can fix this it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I disambiguated the wikilink to Robert Smith (musician)in section /* Songwriting success */

The correct syntax to do this is [[Robert Smith|Robert Smith (musician)]]

You may enjoy the Wikilink Syntax Help page at Wikimedia.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Electricmirror.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Electricmirror.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. —Wknight94 (talk) 16:32, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
