[edit] Telecommunications info. needed

This article does not go into much detail about the telephone, and telecommunications services of the Post Office. It needs to be remembered that the Post Office built up the national telephone network, as well as the initial BBC and ITV television networks (part of the reason for building the Post Office Tower in London, was to cope with growth in these services).

I have created a stub for Post Office Telecommunications [i.e. after 1969], but would someone like to add some info. relating to the period before then?? Thanks a lot. (RM21 20:19, 21 June 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:GPO badge.png

Image:GPO badge.png 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.
