Default How to use "commercial" in artist links?

Added the link https://www.tunecore.co.jp/artist?id=202690 to BLIND SPOT. I classed it as "commercial", which I've never seen used before, but I would assume that's the proper way to use it? I didn't find a thread in the Guides and FAQ's forum in which the different categorizations were explained.

Copied over from Discord, as this might be a better place for this question in the long run.

The main use for Commercial links is exactly that: links to where their music is commercially available. Typically this ends up being artist pages in major digital storefronts like iTunes and personal storefronts like Bandcamp.

We also sometimes use them for major labels' pages for artists (as these tend to be focused on selling you music) and pages for companies they own.
