[edit] Merge

I've suggested merging Rover 45 into the Rover 400 article, as the 45 was just a facelifted version of the 400. I've suggested an analogous move for Rover 25 and Rover 200

An alternative would be to have 2 articles:

  • one Rover 400 (200 saloon) (or a better title) for the Honda Concerto/Rover 200 based 400
  • one entitled Rover 400/45 for the Honda Domani/ Civic based model, incorporating the last 400 model as well as the 45.

  • Since no objections, i've gone ahead with merge. Spute 17:48, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Sensible move but I have added a note that the last 45 model had little in common with its Honda origins (other than the body shape) due to all the changes that MG Rover made {mostly improvements in my opinion, although the last styling facelift is not to everone's taste).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Roewe 450concept.jpg

Image:Roewe 450concept.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 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.BetacommandBot 04:32, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
