Untitled[edit]

An article as it stands looks fine to me, but may be a red link to the Olympic Tournament may be replaced by the following existing template in the end of an article?Is it appropriate there?What do you think?

Actually, this link is not a reference to the Olympic Games page, or to any specific edition of the Olympic Games, but to a page I'm planning to write very soon about the Volleyball Olympic Tournament, i.e., about volleyball olympic events considered as a whole. This new page will describe briefly the history of volleyball in the Olympic Games, past winners, competition formula, etc., much like the World Cup and the World League pages. Hopefully the link won't remain red much longer.

I believe the template you suggested will fit very well at the end of this new page. I will put it there. Thank you very much for pointing it out. vlad_mv 20:55, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Didn't know that you plan to write it. It would be very fine! Particularly I like your style to mention not only medalists, but to present all the standings. Cmapm 21:27, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:FIVBLogo.png[edit]

Image:FIVBLogo.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 Wikipedia articles 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 06:11, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
