[edit] Photo
I'm looking into which Image copyright tag we should be using for these photos. If nothing else, it certainly meets fair use, but maybe {{fairuseunsure}} isn't the correct tag? -Aude (talk | contribs) 17:17, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

- I'm not sure which image you're specifically referring to, but I've found most images on the hijacker pages fit either PD-ineligible (ATM photos, security cameras, Al-Qaeda video, etc), or else/also the FBI tag, since most of the other photos we use were released in FBI press releases at some point.

- I was looking at Image:KAlmihdhar.JPG, which had {{fairuseunsure}} (someone's changed it), and the ones removed by OrphanBot. I think the FBI tag might be suitable, however to say an FBI employee took the photo as part of his/her duties is likely inaccurate. And, the description on Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags of {{PD-ineligible}} doesn't seem to quite fit. There's also a {{mugshot}} tag, though these aren't specifically mugshots but as you say security cameras or probably drivers license, passport, immigration... photos. I'm thinking we probably need to create another tag to add to Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags that covers these cases. The same problems apply to FBI most wanted fugitives. With a proper tag, we won't need to be concerned about OrphanBot. -Aude (talk | contribs) 17:50, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

When where these photos released by the FBI? At least the right one is clearly a different person and was released by the media, not the FBI. --Peephole 16:36, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] contradictions
"Al Midhar [sic!] flew to Saudi Arabia June 10, 2001, where he organized "muscle" hijackers for 9/11 attacks, returning to U.S. on July 4, 2001." The information above must be wrong. by June 10th 2001, most of the muscle hijackers were already in the U.S. "In June of 2000[other articels claim Mai 10th], al-Mihdhar returned to Yemen...returning to U.S. on July 4, 2001." All the information about the things he did in the U.S. in between is very strange. So where has he been now?
I am comparing the hijackers profiles right now, and I find it funny, how they misfit and contradict each other in many details. A large part of the "facts" is based on speculation. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed spend some time in a CIA torture lab, when he became one of the major sources of the 9/11-commission report. 68.18.91.52
[edit] GA review — delisted
In order to uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of October 1, 2007, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

The reasons:
1) Insufficiant number of citations in the text. Many paragraphs do not have them at all. I marked them with 'fact' tags;
2) The reflist should not look like a collection of weblinks. Refs should have titles, dates of publication, publishers, and authors;
3) Many web refs are dead or forbiden.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Dulles khalidalmihdhar.jpg
Image:Dulles khalidalmihdhar.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 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.
