View source for Commercial links policy

The '''Apnea Board Wiki''' is an educational website devoted exclusively to [[Sleep Apnea]] patients and [[CPAP]] usage.  We make a promise to our users and [[Apnea Board Wiki Editor | editors]] that Wiki operations will never be influenced by commercial interests.

'''Direct commercial links are not allowed on Wiki articles.'''  Links to files or web sites that offer illegal or pirated copies of software are forbidden.  Links to non-commercial Sleep Apnea-related websites ''are allowed'' on the Wiki, as long as they ''do not sell anything'' on the website.   The ''only exception'' to our commercial linking rule is when an editor posts a direct link to a CPAP-related manufacturer website for reference purposes:  this is allowed as long as the site does not sell products directly to the public.

Links to [[DME|Durable Medical Equipment Suppliers]] (DME) or [[HME|Home Medical Equipment Suppliers]] (HME) websites or web sites owned or operated by a DME or HME company are not allowed on the Wiki.

Any external link placed on the Apnea Board Wiki must be non-commercial and primarily be informational or educational in nature.  Please see [[Links to be avoided]] for further information.  

Links to any type of commercial site are not allowed in editor signatures.

This policy does not apply to articles that are part of our ''"Personal-Pages"'' category.  Please see [[:Category:Personal-Pages|Personal-Pages]] for details. 

For questions on what ''may'', or ''may not'' be considered a "commercial link", please contact the [[Administrator | Wiki Administrator]] or post your question in the [http://s7.zetaboards.com/Apnea_Board/forum/3032899/ Wiki Editors Forum] ''(log in required)''.
