[edit] Merger

I am propsing the merging of the articles HMAS Jervis Bay (AKR 45) and HSC SpeedOne, as they are about an identical vessel. Most of the articles are identical, dealing with Jervis Bay's military service in East Timor, which is significantly more notable than its later service as a cross-Channel ferry. The civillian service can be added to the end of the article, and if events of the ship's career as a civillian ferry reach a point where a seperate article is required, they can be split out again. -- saberwyn 03:31, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:HMAS Jervis bay in dock.jpg

Image:HMAS Jervis bay in dock.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 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.
