[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Metropolis-anime-dvd.jpg

Image:Metropolis-anime-dvd.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 22:01, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External links

I reverted an External Link to a fan site hosted on freewebs.com . Good-intentioned as the site most likely is (and the original edit adding the site was in good faith), it unfortunately doesn't belong here. Some articles have links to fan sites of large magnitude, such as TheForce.net and Nausicaa.net, both of which are universally recognized as THE leading fan sites for the Star Wars and Studio Ghibli films, respectively. They also cover a broad spectrum of knowledge related to entire bodies of work, not just single movies, and links to them are used very sparingly.

There are a number of external links to sites other than official documentation about the movie itself, such as an essay about the movie. Since these were already here before the fan site went in, I want to ask other editors what they think about including this site in the external links. The essay about the movie might actually be good for a citation, but I'm not sure if it should be in the External Links section. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 07:14, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
