[edit] Peerage
One has to be very careful when dealing with this particular subject and the peerage, since he did not accept all the traditions of the peerage. When the article says he wanted to be known as "Lord George Brown", this is correct as written. He did not want to be "Baron George Brown", because it isn't usual to refer to life peers as Baron outside of formal naming and George Brown was a very informal man.
Likewise, strict application of category ordering would place Lord George-Brown under the 'G's, but that would be inappropriate in this particular case. He still regarded Brown as his last name. David | Talk 12:02, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
- Aye and thanks for the explanation. Greetings Phoe 12:09, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Gbrownloses1970.jpg
Image:Gbrownloses1970.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
