Fair use rationale for Image:Porkywackyland.jpg

Image:Porkywackyland.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.

Questions

1. Under "Censorship" the second item reads, "When Porky in Wackyland was owned by Guild Films during the 1950s until 1967, the scene of the Do-Do popping into the frame on the WB shield...was cut. This was done because Warner Bros. did not want to be associated with television at that time." I'm sorry, but the last sentence is patently false, as Warners was into television big time beginning in 1955 and continuing for at least close to a decade, if they ever truly backed away from the medium again. 1955 saw the premiere of the Western Cheyenne, followed by many other oaters, perhaps most notably Maverick. Before the 50s were over, 77 Sunset Strip launched a web of interlocked private eye shows for the studio. All of these were hits to varying degrees at the time. Did this edit actually happen to the color remake Dough for the Do-Do? That had been among the pre-'48s sold off to other hands, i.e., Warner Bros. had just ceased to be the owners of Dough at the time that this edit is said to have occurred, while the Guild Films situation does not appear to have been an out and out sale (just as the deal Universal Studios made about their old films with Realart Pictures Inc. wasn't) as c. 1970 Warners had several early b/w Looney Tunes "colorized" and re-released with the last version of the LT opening & closing titles spliced on; wouldn't want to guess which party objected to the internal plug.
2. The following section, "Notes," begins with a similarly formatted item about the same shot, stating that the WB shield was accompanied by the NBC chimes. The rest of the section is reference citations. Obviously, this item should not be there, but the question is: Were the chimes a subsequent addition to the film, but do not constitute censorship causing the item to be moved here? --Tbrittreid (talk) 21:10, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Follow-ups and derivative works

It is noted that "There were at least two Terrytoons plagiarizations" but only one is named. There is a somewhat detailed description of the second film, but no name is given. PurpleChez (talk) 18:37, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

• My guess: "The Red-Headed Monkey" (1950). It's sort of like they blended PiW with The Major Lied 'Til Dawn and a good dose of The Slap Happy Lion. An okay watch, I suppose. However, I should add that the creature who shoots flames does so from a tuft at the end of his tail, not his head. Or did they mean another picture entirely? --The_Iconoclast (talk) 15:30, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
