I've always wondered if the concept of the Trade Federation was a subtle dig at the Star Trek universe's Federation on the part of George Lucas?

I thought that as well, especially when Obiwan says "fire on those Federation starships" in AOTC. -- Rebelstrike 16:05, 25 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Trade Federation as Economic Theory

Perhaps this page should be renamed to have "(Star Wars)" at the end in order to allow people to differentiate between the Star Wars fiction and the Libertarian economic theory? ~ User:joel.a.davis

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Tradefederation neimoidians.jpg

Image:Tradefederation neimoidians.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.
