Professional review suggestion[edit]

As an editor at Crawdaddy!, and to comply with COI guidelines, I am not posting the link to this review of Rhett Miller's new, self-titled album. However, I would like to recommend it on its merits, and hope that an editor will find the time to examine the review and—if he or she sees fit—post it to the professional reviews section. I appreciate your time. Crawdaddy! (favorable) [1]

I'm not a frequent contributor, but I thought I followed the relevant standards for music articles according to the albums project at Wikipedia:Albums#Professional_reviews. Specifically, it says

Per Wikipedia:Citing sources do not add reviews without a citation. This means a properly formatted footnote, in most cases providing the author, date, and source, along with an external link if available. Do not use an embedded link with no information (e.g. link) as this promotes link rot and is inconsistent with Wikipedia's policy on embedded links.

When you say that you hope an editor will review the article, are you meaning that not just anyone is allowed to add reviews to the infobox? Sorry if my questions are asinine, just want to help correctly! Unclebanglin (talk) 17:43, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Unclebanglin. Anyone can add reviews to the Professional reviews infobox--by "editor" I mean any user editing the article. I, myself, will not add this review to the article, in order to comply with Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest rules. I'm merely providing the link so that, if another user thinks the review is meritorious enough to add to the page, they may do so. Mike harkin (talk) 16:19, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
