[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ultimatestorm.jpg

Image:Ultimatestorm.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] Merge "discussion"

66.109.248.114 was the only person to disagree with the merge, and that was the second time it had to be merged. Concensus was reached. They should be merged. -Freak104 (talk) 16:17, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

• please merge them, and use WP:ANI to report the IP editor for disruption, namely edit warring and continuing to edit in pursuit of a certain point despite an opposing consensus from impartial editors if they continue, pointing to the debate above to indicate the consensus reached.

My intention was not that of edit warring; however, I feel that valid points were made, that were never addressed in the discussion. In addition, this page has been hastily merged in the past evidenced my a previous merge discussion that last less that 4 days prior to the merge. Consensus rests on dialogue, which I feel was not concluded. -66.109.248.114 (talk) 20:05, 10 January 2008 (UTC).

The merge was open for one month, and a consensus was made. In my view, since you disagree with the consensus, you are being difficult about the matter. I've seen this happen plenty of times: a person disagrees with the majority, then makes a claim of "it's not concluded" just to prevent the consensus from happening.

See my coments below. Yes, this merge was open for one month, but there was no mention of this merge on the main article so one would actually have to go into the alternate versions of Storm article to even know that a merge that concerns both articles is going on. That likely contributes a lot to the lack of participation.--RossF18 (talk) 02:08, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

66.109.248.114 has posted on my own talk page and he is just trying to help out. I don't think he plans on undoing the merge again, so let's all calm down and chalk this up as a learning experience for all involved. Let's move on and maybe be slower to merge articles in the future. -Freak104 (talk) 16:01, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Don't merge. The Storm article is long enough and it is becoming fairly standard to have alternate characters in a separate page. I think the first merge was about merging BloodStorm into this artile, while this second merge is dealing with whether to merge this entire article with the main Article, which I'm opposed to.--RossF18 (talk) 01:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I also think it's kind of interesting that there was nothing in the Storm's main article about the merge. Kind of limits the amount of editors who even know this article merge proposal is going on. --RossF18 (talk) 02:04, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

• Dont Merge - Before the failed FA of the Storm Article, it was mentioned to seperate the various alternates into a seperate page. I DO, however, think it is neccessary to update this article to meet wikipedia's standards. 74.220.74.40 (talk) 05:47, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Don't merge there is no need to merge the article. Storm is a highly notable character with more than enough alternate versions to warrant a separate article.Bookkeeperoftheoccult (talk) 09:33, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
