I was fortunate to know Luana DeVol for many years. I actually got to know her brother Gordon at Capuchino High School in San Bruno, California, and he eventually introduced me to Luana. We all participated in the 1963 summer production of Gilbert & Sullivan's Patience by the San Mateo Community Theatre, followed by The Mikado in the summer of 1964. I next encountered her during performances by the Masterworks Chorale when she appeared as a soloist on numerous occasion. She left for Germany in 1984 to pursue her operatic career and has since had her own website. Sallyrob 17:58, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:LuanaDeVol.jpg

Image:LuanaDeVol.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.
