message: Hi there, 
I'm not sure how you do this here, but there are good recent works on guestbooks and visitor books. 
Here they are from a cultural and language perspective:
Stamou, A. G., & Paraskevolpoulos, S. (2004). Images of nature by tourism and environmentalist discourses in visitors books: a critical discourse analysis of ecotourism. Discourse & Society, 15(1), 105-129
Noy, C. (2008). Mediation Materialized: The Semiotics of a Visitor Book at an Israeli Commemoration Site. Critical Studies in Media Communication, 25(2), 175-195. 
 
Noy, C. (2009). 'I WAS HERE!': Addressivity structures and inscribing practices as indexical resources. Discourse Studies, 11(4), 421-440. 
From a tourism studies perspective: 
 
Stamou, A. G., & Paraskevolpoulos, S. (2003). Ecotourism experiences in visitors' books of a Greek reserve: A critical discourse analysis perspective. Sociologia Ruralis, 43(1), 34-55
Noy, C. (2008). Pages as stages: A performance approach to visitor books. Annals of Tourism Research, 35(2), 509-528.
I'm Chaim Noy and if I can help in any other way please let me know at chaimnoy@gmail.com. Also, if this seems like negative self-promotion of my studies of visitor books (which are my field of expertise), then feel free to delete my studies and incorporate only others' studies.

message: Right, gave this a bit of a go. The fictional history is perhaps still a little overlong (does anyone actually read those things, really?) but hopefully it's at least more balanced now. I'm not crazy about junking information but I'm not sure listing every single issue Dakota's been in and every single trade she's appeared in are necessary, which is why I've cut those sections down - it sets a hell of a precedent if we do that for her. I also dropped the supporting character bit as it was half-written and the fictional history bit covers most of the important ones. BoomboxTestarossa (talk) 18:22, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Linsear Write

message: My company added this article to WP and we had a simple link to our software product which includes this test.  As far as I know, no other software offers this test, so including this link may have actually been useful to some readers.
If this is considered as some sort of violation of policy then that is fine and I apologize, although I fail to see why our software product is being singled out.  A number of our competitors (e.g, KWord, MS Word, GNU Style) are listed in your readability test articles, but only our product is being seen as "spam" for some odd reason and has been systematically removed.  It was never our intention to abuse WP, we simply wished to add and improve your readability test articles and then offer links to our product for those interested in readability software.  The only reason we thought of doing this is because it was quite clear that other software packages were already mentioned in these articles.
At any rate, if this is the case then I wish to ask for this page to be removed and we will begin housing readability test documentation on our own website.  -- B madden 21:48, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
