Fair use rationale for Image:DeanGuitars.png[edit]
Image:DeanGuitars.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

So I'm thinking of buying a Dean Exhibition Thin Body Aphex electro-acoustic guitar. And I'm just wondering is this guitar any good, or how good are D.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:31, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Advert tag removed[edit]
Dean Acoustic Guitar Review
Since this was tagged as an advert there's been a lot of edit activity, and I don't think the tag is relevant any more.
There's still a lot of room for improvement, but there's no way the company would release anything like the current article as advertising! Andrewa 15:15, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
Removal of list of designers and users[edit]
Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a directory of lists (unless if this is a list article, which is not). I removed the holy long lists of designers and users as they become too excessively listy and contained non-notable users and designers. To editors, please create textual contents and improve this article to become the best encyclopaedia article about dean guitars. Dekisugi (talk) 12:13, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
This Article's a stub[edit]
This article is a stub and anyone with cited knowledge about Dean guitars should add to and expand this article.--Peace out (talk) 22:40, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
really needs overhaul[edit]
Could someone who's a credible editor (as opposed to a Dean fanboy) please at least fix those recent references?? Looks like that was done by the poorly-trained monkeys.

what about The Collapse Years??[edit]
The 'history' transitions smoothly from 1996 to 2015. This overlooks that it was pretty much DEAD for a few years in the 1990s, and overlooks interim ownership by Tropical Music.
That gap really calls to question whether Dean Guitars' 'popularity surged' as asserted in the article, particularly as Zelinsky himself felt their big two-humbucker guitars were losing ground steadily to the 'superstrat' fad.
Dean Electric Acoustic Guitar Reviews
The current Dean Guitars has piggybacked itself onto the death of 'Dimebag Darrell' Abbot. They currently offer like 42 (!!) Dimebag signature models. Cevo ambulance driving course. Of their 17 'artist signature' lines, fully five wave the 'Dimebag' flag (the only artist with more than one series to his name).

- This article also seems to imply that the company was not famous until after Zelinsky sold it. But that's clearly not true. They were pretty big in the 80s. DavidRavenMoon (talk) 01:24, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
