[edit] hangon

This article doesn't need to be deleted. The footballer appears to be quite notable. The previous subject of the article, before it was carelessly overwritten, is an actress who appeared in a very popular series and several other movies. [1] There's no reason to delete this article; it should be reinstated to the actress with a disambiguation to the footballer. -- Mikeblas 05:49, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Concur with recommendation to reinstate to actress. Disagree on the footballer. Recommend Speedy Delete of that article/inclusion. Ronbo76 05:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
I think the "Competitors who have played or competed at the highest level in amateur sports." clause of WP:BIO lets the footballer in. (I don't follow soccer, though, so I might be misunderstanding the leagues and level of competition.) -- Mikeblas 06:09, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
It's an unsourced edit contra WP:COI and Wikipedia:Autobiography. As per Wikipedia:Autobiography, if you are famous, let someone else write your article. Ronbo76 06:12, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sam Jenkins.jpg

Image:Sam Jenkins.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.
