[edit] Removed section

The following was removed from the main page:

[edit] In popular culture

At Oxford University, the phrase "The King of Norway" is used to refer to any random occurance which could not have been anticipated in advance, even by the most meticulous planning. This arose from a large and well organized student union election campaign which was disrupted by an (apparently) unannounced visit by Harald V to Balliol College, where the campaign was based, in 2006. The visit effectively locked the campaign into the college for over an hour. Such occurances are often referred to in decision analysis as "unknown unknowns".

It was added by an anon user without any references. The topic itself is not relevant for this article and I question how an event occuring in 2006 at Balliol College counts as popular culture. If it is even true it at least remains to be seen if the "phrase" sticks even in Balliol College culture.Inge 10:08, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Monogram of Harald V.jpg

Image:Monogram of Harald V.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 23:49, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
