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

Image:CARTAlogo.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.

[edit] Too many lists

There are way too many lists in this article. Charleston is such a great place that I am surprised no one has tried to bring this up to featured article status. I am going to attck the lists and will make some entries here if anyone wants to discuss my conversions or deletions. - PennySpender1983 (talk) 01:54, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of Marinas

My first work on the lists was the list of marinas. I deleted this list for Relevance. A bulleted list of marinas does not seem relevant to an encyclopedic article on a place like Charleson. I did move the list to CharlestonWiki.org/?title=List_of_marinas, where relevance is not as much of a concern.

A list of current and past marinas could be relevant in an article on the maritime history of Charleston, if someone wants to take up that task. - PennySpender1983 (talk) 02:25, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of Neighborhoods

I deleted the list of neighborhoods and subdivisions based one Relevance. I cannot beleive that there might be articles in WP that have acheived either Featured or Good status that contain a list like this. Again I moved this list to CharlestonWiki.org/List_of_neighborhoods. - PennySpender1983 (talk) 02:51, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
