[edit] Gay or bisexual?

This edit added Bacon to the category of "bisexual actors" even though the article quotes his wife as saying their marriage was a beard and they were both gay. Is the quote sourced? If it is, then both of them need to be removed from the bisexual category and added to the applicable gay/lesbian one. Being gay and married to a beard is not the same as being bisexual.

[edit] Removed bisexual category

I have removed Category:Bisexual American actors from this page until a reference is provided. Wikipedia is not free to classify people in this manner unless a citation or reference is given. ●DanMS 01:10, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:Maskmarv.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.
