Fair use rationale for Image:Delta Radio logo.jpg edit

 

Image:Delta Radio logo.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 this Wikipedia article 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Lists of presenters edit

Wikipedia has policies on what sorts of list content we allow. WP:LISTPEOPLE is the most relevant here. Lists of presenters who have their own articles are acceptable. Lists of presenters without articles are generally not. Presenters who lack articles can be mentioned in the text of the article (not as a list) if the reference material supports it as valid and relevant encyclopaedic content but not just to shoehorn their names in! Such content will be removed. Repeated insertion will not be tolerated. This has to stop. --DanielRigal (talk) 00:10, 28 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

I have information I would like to add to this article, but it does include presenter names. It explains the last presenter to broadcast from the Haslemere studios and the first presenter to broadcast from the new studios in Bordon. Can this be included? One of the presenters does have an article, the other doesn't. RadioAnorakUK (talk) 00:26, 28 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
That sounds like it could be OK. I don't see it as essential to say who the presenters are when mentioning the change of location but I don't see it as wrong either so long as the reference supports it. If a presenter is being mentioned in conjunction with something relevant then I think that is OK. The key point that the content needs to be about something relevant, not just something trivial being used as a WP:COATRACK (i.e. an excuse) to get their names in. --DanielRigal (talk) 00:35, 28 November 2015 (UTC)Reply


You either have names or you don't! By the sounds of it this is because YOU have decided that YOU don't want them! 82.132.218.132 (talk) 01:51, 28 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

I would also caution the blocked IP editor against logging in elsewhere with another IP. He is only blocked for a short time. I suggest he uses that time to calm down and read the rules. After that, if he behaves sensibly, there will be no more trouble. If instead there is a pattern of block evasion then that could escalate rapidly into much longer blocking periods for all his IPs. I strongly recommend against trying this. Many others have tried and while some have succeeded in disrupting Wikipedia for a short while they all got dealt with quickly and effectively. Trust me. It doesn't work! It isn't worth trying. You either play by our rules or you go away and start your own website with your own rules. --DanielRigal (talk) 13:00, 28 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
