I have made a small correction to the Champion Jack Dupree article as it currently stands (May 20th 2007). It originally stated that a bronze statue had been erected to his memory in Halifax, West Yorkshire. This is an overstatement. It is a small bronze plaque. There is actually no 'municipal' acknowledgement of the time that CJD spent in Halifax (he raised a family here). In brief, Barrie Rutter - the artistic director of a theatre group based in Dean Clough, Halifax - organised a tribute evening to CJD a few years after his death. The proceeds from that evening (which was attended by members of his family) were used to fund the making of the bronze plaque by artist Ian Judd, which is presently in the foyer of Dean Clough. Dean Clough - I suppose I should add - is an arts and business park that was formerly the world's largest carpet mill. The website www.deanclough.com has more information213.123.130.240 11:47, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Champion Jack Dupree.jpg

Image:Champion Jack Dupree.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 05:15, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
