[edit] Why this commercial page?

This is a commercial page for an unimportant company. Internet Brands Inc. recently bought Wikitravel, which is now a pure commercial project, being not under the GNU license. I think the community has not yet realized this move of Wikitravel into the commercial sector. Thus, the Wikipedia entry of Internet Brands Inc. helps to make things clear. Otherwise, it should have been omitted instantly.--Klauspeter 09:49, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Therefore a fork of wikitravel, called wikivoyage was founded to avoid commercialisation of a travel wiki. Meanwhile the fork ist working pretty well although in german only (at the moment). See article in german wikipedia--134.60.50.163 15:51, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia documents many commercial companies as any encylopedia does. So for example, Category:Companies based in San Mateo County contains a listing of a dozen articles about companies in just one California county. Also Wikitravel is hosted by a commerical company, but the content is Free content which means that you can reuse the text -- or start your own wiki based on the text -- under certain conditions. While you might argue that IB is an unimportant company, it does host Wikitravel which has already been determined to be important enough to warrant an article (see that discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wikitravel) so one might argue that by hosting a site worthy of an article it is prudent to have an article about the hosting company too. -- Cjensen 09:33, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Internet Brands' total traffic (across its holdings) probably make it one of the larger internet operations in the world. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.111.44.88 (talk) 16:36, 2 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Cdc logo.gif

Image:Cdc logo.gif 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 05:34, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

See logo page. Rationale has been added. Hopefully this has been done correctly. Since laws are templates themselves, it's odd that specific, templated answers don't suffice, but a custom rationale has been added. If more is needed, help most welcome.
