[edit] Architect
Who designed the Giralda? My original source just said Jabir. Some others say Jabir Ibn Afiah. Somebody else inserted, with a reference, that the architect was Ahmad ibn Baso. Can anyone clarify this contradiction?--Bkwillwm 01:07, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
- I will do some more research but as far as I know, ibn Baso (or ben Basso, depending of transliteration used) was the alarife (not totally equivalent of the concept of architect). See [1] [2] [3][4]. Nevertheless, he stopped working on it in 1176. So ibn Afiah may have taken the job up then. Not sure. I will get back to you on this.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Giralda madison square.jpg
Image:Giralda madison square.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 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.
