[edit] Redirect links

Two of the names blogs on this page are links, but they just redirect to this page (Gawker Media). The others are broken links. Why exactly is this a useful thing? --Jfruh 02:31, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] StarryFever?

Last I heard, Gawker didn't host their blogs on Blogger, used their own servers for images as opposed to ImageShack, and didn't include StarryFever. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[edit] Consumerist

I added the The Consumerist to the list. Here is the post saying that it is a Gawker Media title.--Geedubber 10:21, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Valleywag

I know that Valleywag is a Gawker site - their "advertise with us" link goes to gawker's site. Not to mention, they use the same layout as all other gawker blogs.

Here is a source for all sites operated by gawker: [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.131.62.115 (talk) 16:45, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lat leaving

did Lat leave on his own accord? or was he "let go" ? Geedubber 13:51, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

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

Image:Gawker.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 10:12, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
