In the "In The News" article, there are outside links that do not go to any Disney site. I'm asking for permission to include the links before I add them. Thanks, --Haveamagicalday (Talk | Contributions) 09:10, 31 May 2008 (PDT)
I do not feel comfortable having these links on the wiki. If anything, we could think about copying the POTCO reviews directly onto the wiki (we're already doing something similar with Pixie Hollow...see Pixie Hollow Review - Toy Fair 2008). But before this is done, would need to screen the reviews for appropriateness, and figure out the logistics. Anyways, for the time being, no links. Might be a good idea to copy the links elsewhere so that we have them if we need them, and perhaps even save the articles, etc. --UpInTheAir 21:02, 31 May 2008 (PDT)
