[edit] Page move

I moved this article from Amusement Vision, Ltd. to Amusement Vision in accordance with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names). While it should be fairly obvious that the name minus the "Ltd." is in more common usage, a cursory Google offers these results: "amusement vision" -"amusement vision, ltd." (30,800 results) vs. "amusement vision, ltd." (409 results). - Vague | Rant 09:25, May 9, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Daytona USA

Not only does the existing Daytona USA article claim that the game was made by AM2, not AM4, but so does the AM2 logo on certain versions of the Daytona USA machine. I would have gone and just changed it, however the entrys claim that "AM4 was a special research department of SEGA known for the development of arcade games such as Daytona USA (1994)" makes this harder than it needs to be.

Interestingly, the main Sega article also claims AM2 - however, AM4 did develop at least the PC, if not also one of the saturn versions of Daytona USA , and hence this may be where some of the confusion comes from. In any case, I'm erring on the side of caution and not changing the AM2/AM4 entries today (new to wikipedia, paranoid :-p), but if no-one objects I will at some point in the near future, pending a little more research to be sure - particularly since everyone agrees that the game came from Toshihiro Nagoshi, who of course headed AM4 at one time. . -- jj 210.10.237.168 03:40, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Logo avision.gif

Image:Logo avision.gif 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 ensure 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.
