Fair use rationale for Image:Carry On Cruising DVD Cover.jpg edit

 

Image:Carry On Cruising DVD Cover.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 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.

Unsourced material edit

The following is unsourced information:

  • Dilys Laye took over the role of Flo Castle at very short notice after the first choice, Joan Sims, was taken ill.
  • The S.S. Happy Wanderer was a life size mock-up, complete with all the features of a real cruise ship.
  • The role of Wilfred Haines was originally intended for Charles Hawtrey, but was re-written for Lance Percival after Hawtrey quit in a dispute with the producer over billing.

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (talk) 14:39, 19 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Haynes Technique edit

I have never heard of the "Haynes Technique" in data-processing... despite working in that field. Also, searching on Google doesn't really come up with much... most of the results are mirrors of the WP page. It's a lovely idea, but without any hard evidence that the phrase is actually used in this way it shouldn't really be in Wikipedia.

I have added a citation-needed tag.

Although a reference has been provided it does not substantiate the assertion. --1.129.96.7 (talk) 11:07, 14 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Oronsay edit

According to IMDB, P&O's liner "Oronsay", in stock footage, was used to depict the "Happy Wanderer". Should this be mentioned in the article? Elsquared (talk) 08:45, 24 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

I was going to ask the same question as the film starts out with acknowledging the assistance of the P&O Orient Line and starts with an image of a real liner. Reverend Edward Brain, D.D. (talk) 03:16, 20 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
