[edit] 2099

Having Doom 2099 as a separate article violates WP:Fancruft, so please don't unmerge it from this article. Thanks. Freak104 16:13, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

WP:Fancruft is an essay and not even a guideline. As I've said here having such a list as this doesn't mean every version should be merged here. (Emperor 00:41, 18 September 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Doom 2099 Survey

I am posted merge tags and wanted to start the discussion, similar to what is being done on the Hulk and Spider-man Alternate version discussions.

  • No Merge - Doom 2099 appeared in his own series and was one of the launching titles for 2099 imprint. Though similar, they are wholly separate characters. The series itself left unresolved whether Doom 2099 was in fact Victor Von Doom, Kristoff Vernard, or another character altogether. The characters of 2099 represent a distinctive imprint, and unlike fancruft Doom 2099 has an established and lengthy publication history. Doom 2099 deserves mention, but not to be merged wholly into this article. 66.109.248.114 20:48, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • No merge - I mostly agree with 66.109.248.114. --Lkseitz 02:27, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
  • No merge I was wrong to merge them originally. Sorry. Freak104 02:57, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Discussion closed with consensus of no merge. 66.109.248.114 08:55, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Otto von Doom.jpg

Image:Otto von Doom.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.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Doom-2099.jpg

The image Image:Doom-2099.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
  • That this article is linked to from the image description page.
