[edit] Skull and Crossbones
- Though the company is still experimenting with a logo, most of the clothing either carries a small embroidered rugby football player or a skull and crossbones motif (a thinly veiled reference to the Skull and Bones society at Yale University).
Are we giving Skull and Bones too much credit (if that is possible)? Many social fraternities and sororities use a skull or the skull and crossbones for "until death" imagery. Could this be a more general reference? Calling it "thinly vieled" seems to be even more critical. When I read this, I thought maybe a grumpy Bonesman had put it up there. --BDD 17:07, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
The skull and bones motif is a popular symbol in rugby, because it the formal "crest" of the School House at Rugby School [1]where the game was founded.--NHM 14:10, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
There is a new Rugby Store going in on Armitage and Shefeild in Chicago. Near the Armitage Brown Line Stop. amp
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:RRLlogo.jpg
Image:RRLlogo.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.
