Underdogs
I linked to Home of the Underdogs site and ShakespeareFan00 removed it. He (she?) cited that the site may possibly contain copyrighted material (I assume they meant the actual game image files). I checked, it does, but does it really matter? Underdogs normally only posts games that have been abandoned. Since this application was released in 1986 and was published by a company that doesn't exist anymore, for an operating system (DOS) that almost no one uses anymore, I think it's acceptable to link to it. Besides, we're not linking to it because of the software it has, but because of the other information it contains that the article doesn't. If we cited it as a reference, would ShakespeareFan00 still have a problem with it? I include the link again. Any objection? &mdash; Frecklefσσt | Talk 16:15, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


 * 'Abandonware' has no legal basis. Sfan00 IMG 16:53, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Whatever the case is, we have no policy against linking to sites that may carry software that is gray area of legality. The fact is, no one has tried to sue them for the software they post. If you can cite a policy the link violates, fine. AFAIK, there is a discussion about this, but no consensus has yet been reached. &mdash; Frecklefσσt | Talk 21:07, 5 August 2007 (UTC)


 * It was brought to my attention that the proposal of the deletion of the Underdogs template has been defeated. Therefore, I am restoring the link to Underdogs. &mdash; Frecklefσσt | Talk 13:15, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
