How exactly is a URL sanctioned by the paterno family self promoting? Explain? --Techofpa (talk) 10:23, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
- A. Because the exact same URL was posted earlier by someone with a direct link to the Paterno's.
- B. Your screen name and lack of posting history indicate you might have a link to the group that was contracted to build the site.
- It also would fall under WP:COI or WP:RS Will Maddickphit Esq (talk) 10:36, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Isn't that the point? It's sanctioned and officiated. It's pertinent information. --Techofpa (talk) 10:46, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Actually it's just the opposite. It's agenda pushing. The objective of the site you posted is to clear Paterno's name, and/or paint a picture of him contrary to that of reliable sources. For example, a member of the bin Laden family could pay to have a site portraying Osama in a positive light published. It would be "official" but it wouldn't be acceptable for inclusion here.
