[edit] Is this appropriate reporting style or should we add a disclaimer?

Guess it might draw a bit of criticism in my name but the Priyadarshini Mattoo case is one of the few high profile cases that was widely covered by the media and other sources. However, the word by word statement from the media has been reported as a report in this Encyclopedia. Just wondering whether it is appropriate for Wikipedia. I guess, this makes an interesting read for any one who wants to read about the media coverage and versions of the story but I guess it is better if this came with a bit of hindsight to the reader stating that this is not an investigation report but an aggregate of all media reportings of the issue.

The case which has re-iterated the publics belief on the legal system in india. Deep Kumar

Very interesting case - Ummer

The conviction will most probably be challenged in the Supreme Court of India, but the verdict and the process is seen as a barometer of a changing India. In particular, it is hoped now that media pressure can be brought to bear in the case of prominent accused such as Manu Sharma or Vikas Yadav or Sanjeev Nanda, and that eventually, the ability of the powerful to remain above the law would be curtailed.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Priyadarshini Mattoo.jpg

Image:Priyadarshini Mattoo.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 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.
