[edit] Incorrect article?

Section removed from article:

The Portland Rosebuds were an ice hockey team based in Portland, Oregon which played in the Pacific Coast Hockey Association from 1914 to 1918. Later, the name was reborn when the Regina Capitals moved to Portland for the 1925-26 WHA season, the final one for the Western Hockey Association. In 1916 they became the first United States based team to participate in the Stanley Cup Finals. Their home arena was the Portland Ice Arena. They later were sold to Chicago and became the Blackhawks.

I removed the previous section from the article, as it appears to be meant for a different article? Maybe not? Flibirigit 03:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Umm, yeah. That is all factually correct to the best of my knowledge, but has absolutely nothing to do with the Portland Winter Hawks. Seems to me that the author might have chosen to put it in this article for historical perspective on Portland hockey, but it would be better suited as a stub article of its own.

So what to do with it? Move it to Portland Rosebuds? Flibirigit 05:32, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I suppose not, as this is a virtually exact copy of that article already. I was searching for Portland Rose Buds last night... for no apparent reason it seems. Guess it just needed to be pruned from the Winter Hawks article. Resolute 14:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

I have reorganized the Rosebuds article, adding a note about players transferring to Chicago. Flibirigit 20:09, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Portlandwinterhawks.gif

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.

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.
