Fair use rationale for Image:Im weißen Rössl (1960).jpg

edit
 

Image:Im weißen Rössl (1960).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 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 08:52, 5 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

... you have succeeded in reducing a well-documented and well-illustrated article to a mere text by deleting practically all images. I hope you are happy now. Why not go on this way and add some more tags—no reliable sources, verification needed, whatever—and eventually reduce it to a stub? Right now, Wikipedia mirrors are better off because they still have the full article.

And why all that? Because there are people who think deleting an image is easier, quicker, more correct even, than adding a fair use rationale themselves, although there are thousands of precedents from which the gist of the rationale could be copied. Why delete the White Horse Inn movie poster and keep thousands of others? Just because the original uploader no longer cares to add new details to one and the same image every other month, whenever someone has thought up a new alleged legal threat? <KF> 21:24, 17 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
