[edit] Anglo-Irish
In the Somerville and Ross books, the RM himself was Anglo-Irish and from Dublin, but it was felt that this might be too difficult for the viewing audience to understand, so he was portayed as English. I'm not sure if Flurry Knox would have considered himself Anglo-Irish, but as an Irish Protestant. Millbanks 16:35, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
- An explanation along those lines should be added. Also, the phrase
only adds to the ambiguity. It looks like the R.M. is actually Irish (and therefore presumably of a Catholic background, for instance), but as you say is portrayed as English in the TV production. If I get time I will look at reworking this a bit, unless someone gets to it first. Robertbyrne (talk) 14:41, 5 March 2008 (UTC)the life of an Irish ex-British Army officer Resident Magistrate (R.M.)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:The-Irish-RM-book.jpg
Image:The-Irish-RM-book.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
