[edit] Advertising

I think it looks much like advertising: placing an advertisement poster of the Peshtera brand [800x600 pixels at that], also there is a link for the same brand's site at the end of the article [stating that it's the most popular in Bulgaria]. Isn't that too subjective? --Zliv 10:24, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

I dont find it as advertisement, i added the link ( not the picture ) and it is a fact that is the most popular brand in bulgaria. (sale info/statistics are available all over the net). in addition i searched for other brands websites to place them but couldnt find, i guess that only peshtera has a website. --[mitko] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.64.139.1 (talk) 18:09, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Peshtera brand is just one of the relatively big number of mastika producers in Bulgaria (which i won't mention here). Also the link to the "funny" site (created by Mitko Nanov, note "mitko") placed at the bottom contains a hidden Peshtera advertisement as well. Also "i searched for other brands websites to place them but couldnt find" seems too lame to me as an excuse, it is simply not true. Therefore i'm inclined to suspect this brand in an attempted advertisement on this wiki page. Also it should be noted that this same brand took part in a corruption scandal in spring 2008 in Bulgaria, so from my personal point of view there is no doubt that Peshtera's managers find it normal to use non-market means of increasing their market share.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Mastika2003 2.jpg

Image:Mastika2003 2.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 ensure 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.
