[edit] Russia

"The show was also a smash cult hit in Russia, being the first American program to air there after the collapse of the Soviet Union."

Though (maybe) technically correct, this statement is misleading. Santa Barbara was, in fact, introduced to Russian screens shortly after the collapse of the Soviet Union ( the Soviet Union was dissolved in stages during December 1991, and Santa Barbara aired for the first time on January 2, 1992. ) Santa Barbara was _not_ the first American program ever to air in Russia. Duck Tales were shown for the first time on Soviet TV in January 1991. Phil Donahue Show was first broadcast in Soviet Union as early as 1987. --Itinerant1 22:33, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:590TITLE.jpg

Image:590TITLE.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 Wikipedia articles 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.

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.Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 04:45, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
