[edit] Ottawa is a megacity?

A megacity is, according to the article, is a city with a population in excess of 10 million people. Ottawa is no where close. --Richman271talk/con 23:44, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

  • It's a megacity according to the locals and the Ontario government. Ardenn 23:53, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
The locals? I live here, and I have never heard anyone refer to Ottawa as a "Megacity". Puehaps it should be said that "According to the Ontario Government, Ottawa is a Megacity" or something like that. --Richman271talk/con 23:40, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Actually, it says in the article that in Canada, the definition is an amalgamated city of several former municipalities. --216.106.107.187 23:33, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Old Ottawa Flag.png

Image:Old Ottawa Flag.png 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 ensure 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.
