[edit] picture

I removed the picture because it seemed to me that a monument about the Baptism of Rus, which occured in the 10th century, would be unlikely to depict a prince from the 16th century. Still, if User:Irpen is sure about this one, I withdraw my objections. Balcer 23:13, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

The monument to the Baptism of Rus is a composition that depicts many figures deemed important for the Orthodox Christianity. Ostrogsky, reverred as a defender of the Orthodox church against the suppression by Poland, is depicted in the composition. In Russian sources, he is called "Konstantin Konstantinovich Ostrozhsky". His father is called "Konstantin Ivanovich Ostrozhky". I hope I answered your question. --Irpen
Thanks for the explanation. Obviously my removal of the image was too hasty. My apologies. I would suggest appending this useful information to the image description. Balcer 00:09, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Done. Actually I made a mistake. The monument was dedicated to millenium of Rus' (Rurik's legendary accession) and not millenium of Baptism. We have a monument's picture in Wikipedia [1] and there is a good source for more info in Russian[2]

Someone, might write a Millenium of Rus' monument at some point and it's author Mikhail Mikeshin[3]. Ghirla, are you around :) ? --Irpen 04:30, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Konstantin Konstantinovich Ostrozhsky.jpg

Image:Konstantin Konstantinovich Ostrozhsky.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.
