- Such articles are notable for their sales orientated language, prevalence of external links to a commercial website and are written to promote the product, service or event in favourable manner.
What the TARDIS Index File community is not
- The TARDIS Index File is not a general purpose message board, the Forum, user pages, article talk pages will attract conversation, that's what they're there for. These discussions should be focused on the title of subject of the talk or forum pages.
