Linking to content-light Lemonade Drinkers pages
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you.--McGeddon (talk) 19:03, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Dear McGeddon, Thank you for your note. The page in question is a not-for-profit online editorial which we write and curate to explore the music choices and record collections of some of the interesting artists, thinkers, and musicians of our time. It is run as a charitable endeavour in association with The Vinyl Factory and has a readership in the region of 100,000/month. Some of this content is also syndicated to other art publications. The links were re-posted by one of our interns who was trying to get to grips with the (sometimes quite complicated for the non-web savvy!) use of web language and coding, and they went to the extra effort of re-posting them to make sure they appeared correctly in terms of formatting. We want to be responsible members of the wikipedia community and if our team have anything else they aren't sure about I hope it's okay if they contact you for advice. Many thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 10Tigers (talk • contribs) 14:27, 10 June 2014‎
 * Got it. I'd recommend taking a look at WP:COI before adding any more links to your website to Wikipedia - irrespective of the links' merit, adding links to your own website is very strongly discouraged. By all means drop me a line if you have any questions. --McGeddon (talk) 17:49, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
