[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Trs80-Meteor.png
Image:Trs80-Meteor.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 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.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Trs80-Meteor.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Trs80-Meteor.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 15:27, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sorry to scare you off, but...
I'm afraid I was following Wikipedia policy. According to WP:BLP, if an article deals with living people, as Religious debates over Harry Potter does, any information added without a source that could prove controversial must be removed, or Wikipedia could face libel action. I understand what you're trying to say, and I think it's a useful distinction to make, but in order to make it you would have to cite a poll or some other third-party source. Otherwise you're just stating an opinion. Wikipedia isn't a place to write essays; everything has to be verifiable, especially when it concerns a topic as controversial as this one.

[edit] Goethe & auctions
Hey--It's a neat point about Goethe, but that's probably not the best place for it. I'd suggest putting it in Vickrey auction, and reference more formal sources than the blog. Two sources are:
- "Goethe's Second-Price Auction" by Moldovanu & Tietzel, Journal of Political Economy, 1998. It's available on jstor [1], or as a working paper (i.e. not yet peer-reviewed, but free to download) at [2].
- Other Vickrey auction history in "Vickrey Auctions in Practice: From Nineteenth-Century Philately to Twenty-First-Century E-Commerce" by Lucking-Reiley, Journal of Economic Perspectives, 2000. It's available on jstor [3], or for free (not sure about review status) at [4].
