[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Mozambique flag 1975.gif

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Mozambique flag 1975.gif. 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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images 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. Jesse Viviano 06:47, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually, there is no reason for any flags from FOTW to be here. Someone with an SVG-generating arts package like Inkscape should be able to draw a replacement flag and release it under a free license. Because this can be done, fair use is disallowed on Wikipedia for flags. Jesse Viviano 03:06, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
