[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Blur(NewUniverseComics).jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Blur(NewUniverseComics).jpg. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. 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. (ESkog)^(Talk) 20:40, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

That's not a stupid question at all - and if you look through my talk page archives, you're far from the first person to be stymied by this rule. The basic idea is that you need to justify why the image improves the article, and our rules are pretty specific that this improvement needs to take place in the form of identification and critical commentary. In scanning through the comic cover category, I find that Image:6.5Supergirls.jpg and Image:Action Comics -1 June 1938.jpg are both exemplary rationales in that they explain why the image communicates/enhances a concept that would be difficult or impossible to explain using text alone. I hope this helps - let me know if you have any questions. (ESkog)^(Talk) 14:44, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Replaceability refers specifically to how well the image could be replaced by a free alternative. In the case of a comic book cover, it is unlikely the image will be released freely by the publisher, so it is easy to claim that it cannot be replaced. (ESkog)^(Talk) 17:48, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Looks good. Keep it up. (ESkog)^(Talk) 18:07, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:JillianPearlmanStarSapphire.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:JillianPearlmanStarSapphire.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 07:53, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
