[edit] Deletion/Merge

Removing prod because US senate race is not Non-notable. Nebraska United States Senate election, 2006 has its own article. - Jc37 13:51, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Although that's true, political candidates are generally non-notable to begin with. The race is noteworthy, but the candidates are not until they win. This article should therefore be merged into the race's page. Vectro 03:10, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

• shouldn't you place a "merge from" tag in the destination article as well? Also, shouldn't the previous comment go on the talk page of the destination article? I placed a comment on the discussion, but it looks strange sitting there by itself when there are no merge tags sitting on that page. Alienmercy 16:55, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

The guy gets 75,000+ hits on Google and is the former COO of Ameritrade. Either way, he's notable in his own right. 1ne 19:08, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Petericketts.gif

Image:Petericketts.gif 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 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 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.
