If South Riding is in Chantilly, and Chantilly is in Fairfax County, how is South Riding in Loudon County? I also don't understand why South Riding has its own zip code, 20152, when Chantilly's zip code is 20151. I guess SR is something unique, because most communities don't have their own zip codes. Does this mean SR will eventually become a city (or town, or whatever the technical term is) like Chantilly? I think the answers to these questions would benefit the article. If someone knows the answers, I'd like to know them too. Stiles 02:14, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

  • South Riding is in Chantilly because 20152 is in Chantilly. SR will probably eventually receive a permanent mailing address soon though, because most people in the 20152 zip code live in South Riding. So, 20152 may soon be South Riding, Virginia by default by the Postal Service rather than Chantilly. Similar things have happened with Reston and McLean in the past, so South Riding should too.20176 18:16, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Loudoun Seal.jpg

Image:Loudoun Seal.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 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.BetacommandBot 05:35, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
