Fair use rationale for Image:University Club Library.jpg[edit]

Image:University Club Library.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.

Membership criteria[edit]

I noticed that this article is somewhat limited so far. Can someone just explain the membership criteria and how they are selecting memebers, etc? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 57.69.22.246 (talk) 21:46, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 21:32, 6 June 2021 (UTC).[reply]

New enough expansion, definitely over 5x expansion, long enough. Don't see any problem with neutrality, well-referenced, hooks cited inline. Earwig doesn't pick up any copyvios other than quotes and long names. Don't have much of an opinion on which hook to use - any of them would be fine. Image is free, used in the article, and shows up well at 100x100px. Only a QPQ is needed. Roniius^{talk to me} 13:09, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Roniius: Thanks for the review. I have now done a QPQ. Epicgenius (talk) 16:29, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Epicgenius: Good to go then. Roniius^{talk to me} 16:31, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
