[edit] Advertising

I reverted a version almost certainly written by the company (available here). It had some good information but was largely written as fluff. It would be a good resource if anyone wants to integrate it properly into the article... presumably they released the text under the GFDL when they posted it here so we can use it. --W.marsh 14:00, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, a lot of it was written by Schwan staff, but that doesn't mean you should completely undo their additions. Instead, take what they contributed and make it better. Now it's a stub again, and no one likes stubs. Please undo your revert and only change or take out what you think is non-encyclopedic text. Also, I checked the Schwan web site and could not find this same text, so as far as I could tell they did write this specifically for Wikipedia; it doesn't look like copyrighted text. I spent a lot of time already improving upon their text and I hope you will too.   JEK   Friday, June 13, 2008 at 00:47
Anyone can do that... I will if I have the time. --W.marsh 19:04, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Can anyone find information on why the Schwans family is so secretive (Marvin Schwan himself gave no interviews after 1982)?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:RedBaronLogo.jpg

Image:RedBaronLogo.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.
