Episodes?

Conundrum: the article states there were thirteen episodes, but the site linked states that there were 32 known episodes, many of which were lost, but more than 13 episodes survive. Can someone clear this up? 71.200.139.4 13:22, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

It appears that the total number of episodes produced is unknown, but 13 episodes are in existance today (the 18 listed on the linked website are the known plots, not recordings). I'll delete the last line about 13 episodes.Konczewski 19:17, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Lonclark.jpg

Image:Lonclark.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

External links being systematically deleted

Please help me with...

I run a non-commercial, advertising-free website devoted to Old Time Radio. I publish a mixture of my own work and work submitted to me by fans. These include: plotlines, reviews, CD cover art, a comprehensive listing of radio adaptations of famous authors' work, top-10 lists, recommendations, and links to other websites. The site hosts over 2,100 plotlines and 1,300 reviews from 70 different radio series. The 'Famous Authors on Radio' page cross-references 2,800 stories from over 900 different authors. Since this is an ever-expanding work-in-progress, some of the pages are more complete and higher in quality than others. The website has been online for 17 years.

Several dozen of the Old Time Radio web pages at Wikipedia provide external links back to the corresponding pages at my website because my website provides copyrighted material that some people have found useful.

I did not create these links. But I do maintain them. (Actually, I did not create any of the original links -- many of which date to 2004 -- but, as my website has grown I have added links to new web pages.)

Lately, those links have been systematically deleted by one (or perhaps several) individuals. The reason given is 'Low Quality URL'.

I have read the Wikipedia section on External links. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_links#What_can_normally_be_linked It seems like the links to my website might fall in a grey area.

I am writing to ask if there is a community consensus on whether these links can remain? Or if, in the interest of improving Wikipedia, they should be removed? In other words, I can't tell if the links were justifiably deleted or whether they were the result of vandalism. (And if they were the result of vandalism, how I should proceed.)

Any help about how I should proceed to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

P.S. I have posted this question on the External Links board, but have not received any comments.
