Linking
I have reverted your links you added to typeface. There are two pages I think you should review: WP:EL and WP:COI. Even if your edits are in good faith, linking to your own personal website multiple times is considered spamming wikipedia. Our external links have to meet our policies. They needs to be published, reliable, sourced information. Unfortunately, since these links are published on a free AOL webpage, this is problematic. Also, one of the broadsheets doesn't even site its sources, so how can we trust that it is reliable? I personally think these broadsheets are neat and attractive, but they have issues. You may want to consider creating graphics and uploading them for use on wikipedia. You could even release these broadsheets under the GFDL (assuming you created them), and consider uploading them to the commons for everyone to use (however, the lack of sources is still an issue). There are many, many ways you can contribute to wikipedia, and someone with your knowledge and skill in graphic design could clearly help (but adding links to your personal website of your own original research isn't one of them). I hope this experience doesn't discourage you at all, and if you have any questions I'd be glad to try and help. Thanks for your consideration.-Andrew c [talk] 16:55, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
