[edit] Seriously?

"Evanston's mascot is Willie the Wildkit, a based version of Northwestern University's "wildcat". Evanston did not want to use the "Wildcat" mascot title because of a copyright issue as deemed by the school. At the moment, it is still under debate."

I don't live in Evanston anymore, but I have a really hard time believing that "Wildcat," of all things, is a protected mascot. Could someone closer to the school either cite a reference or debunk this? 69.142.115.249 (talk) 15:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vandal

Watch out for user Slo-mo, he's been vandalizing high school pages and then reports others to admins as vandals. So wrong.

[edit] removed alumni

Someone had Thomas Jefferson as a 1999 graduate of the school. It should be obvious why I removed that :) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thediva (talk • contribs) 07:20, 17 January 2007 (UTC).

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

Image:Ethslogo.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 06:58, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
