Fair use rationale for Image:ST-VOY Favorite Son.jpg

[edit]

Image:ST-VOY Favorite Son.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 09:31, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Aoba47. This is fine. Just one tiny fix needed which I've done. I was a little concerned when I saw IMDb but it isn't a direct reference so it's okay – I like IMDb but I agree with WP that it's unreliable. The article is a very thorough examination of the episode, so certainly broad in coverage. It's well written and fully sourced with no problems.

I used to watch Voyager every week when it was new but I don't recall this episode at all so perhaps it was one I missed. Anyway, it's definitely a good article and I think it has the potential for an FA nomination. Please let me know if you decide to take it to FAC. Well done. All the best and keep safe.

  • @No Great Shaker: Thank you for the review and your kind words. I can understand the concern about having IMDb on a Wikipedia page. In fact, the practice of including IMDb (and other sites such as Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic) is currently under discussion here. You may find that discussion interesting. I do intend to take this to the FAC sometime in the near future, and I will let you know when I do. Considering how this episode was universally hated, it may have been a good thing you missed it lol. Thank you again, and have a great rest of your week!
