Talk:Stephen L. Nelson

Removal of external links
Even though I am not putting this article up for AFD per Autobiography, I think the creator stepped over the line listing his web sites under external links. The sites are not about him and add nothing to this article. Just because a person has an article doesn't give him the right to violate WP:EL by listing his sites. -- DS1953 talk 21:42, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

 * He actually seems to be right. WP:EL 2, says "Articles about any organization, person, web site, or other entity should link to the official site if there is one." So at least his official page should stay. Linking to 3 "official sites" is debatable, but I'd give it to him as well, it's not as if he has 20.
 * What's more, since the article says: "He also publishes a small business accounting web site with several thousand pages of small business tax, computer and accounting information including free pdf versions of half a dozen of his books, an LLC formation web site that provides do-it-yourself limited liability company formation kits for all fifty states, and an S corporation setup web site that provides do-it-yourself S corporation setup kits for all fifty states." - writing that without giving the actual links seems kind of perverse.

 * I reduced some of that sentence, but restored the links. Also corrected the WSJ date - Dec 2000, not fall 2001. AnonEMouse (squeak) 18:43, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
