Logo
Why did you remove the company logo from the Exact page? All it needed was a bit of a down-sizing. - Mgm|(talk) 11:57, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
 * True, copyright can be a very complicated thing. Logos can be used under the fair use clause of United States copyright law (Wikipedia servers are located in Florida). External links should not be used to advertise the subject but rather to point to more detailed information about the subject not covered or differently covered than it is in the article. (See External link. The link I put in the Exact Software article showed why it was important (it won a Microsoft prize) so that's why I thought it should be there. Also, in general it's a bad idea to link the same page more than once. And finally, Cite sources; try linking websites and naming books that back up the facts you write in the article. I hope that helps a bit. I hope you enjoy your stay here on Wikipedia. - Mgm|(talk) 16:30, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
