[edit] Quote sources
Can we truly quote "An Amazon reviwer" when it isn't an editorial review? I am asking because I am not fully aware of if this is permissable or not. Lsjzl 21:33, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know. Personally I regard such a quote as the equivalent of a blog post. I'd like to see all blog posts banned OR labeled as "less reliable" or something like that. Let's review

- I should probably say first that the Amazon quote had already been removed just around the time that I left my first comment. Still, when reading the Citing Sources page I did find this: "Remember that Wikipedia is not a place for expressing your own opinions" - and most likely Amazon reader reviews are just as relavant as our own opinion in this way.

- The second Amazon review was not useful, the the first was actually from Publisher's Weekly, which is a legit publication. --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:25, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

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