Fair use rationale for Image:BannerHigh 1.jpg

[edit]

Image:BannerHigh 1.jpg 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.

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 23:28, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Copy + paste

[edit]

I guess the content is pretty much copy + paste from the 2008 info, see [1] - now shortened, ----Erkan Yilmaz 11:09, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Where are these updates from?

[edit]

@Doering73: there's a number of problems with the updates you've provided. First, where does 2,067,951 come from? It's not in the citation you put immediately after the figure. And how does it make sense to say this figure is "as of September 2022" when the cited page is from January 2019 (and you've label it as archived April 2021 when it was archived February 2019)? Also the ref you named "COL2022" doesn't refer to anything. You have to provide an actual citation to go with the name. -- Fyrael (talk) 20:46, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
