[edit] Neutrality

Lots of weasel words and unnecessary narrative that needs to be either removed or cited all over this article. Here's just an example from one section:

United fans were eternally grateful, as the slightly-built Norwegian went on to score the winning goal in the 1999 UEFA Champions League Final, helping the team secure the astonishing Treble and cementing his own place in the United folklore. These feats, as well as his likeable demeanour, made him a firm favourite among the United supporters, inspiring songs such as "Who Put the Ball in the Germans' Net?" and "You Are My Solskjær". Although he had been absent on the pitch for a long time due to injury, United fans still fill matches with chants sung in Solskjær's honour.

A few are quite true though, to be fair. I am of course not exactly the most objective of people on this matter... Life is great...if you support Manchester United 17:27, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Any idea how to get rid of the red highlighter? Life is great...if you support Manchester United 17:30, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree, there are too many superlatives in the text. At one point it says that "After a further injury sustained in Copenhagen, Solskjær again returned on top form scoring the third goal in the 3-1 win over Wigan on Boxing Day. Solskjær continued his magnificent form by scoring United's opening goal in their 3-2 win over Reading on the 30th of December. He can't be in magnificent form if he's only played 2 matches! 86.135.209.39 (talk) 20:40, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Solskjaer goal.jpg

Image:Solskjaer goal.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 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.
