From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page is for storing fair use image Summary and Rationale verbiage for convenient retrieval. Note: If you come across this page, please do not blindly re-use the material here for your own fair use image descriptions. The rationale for including a fair use image on any given page must be unique to each article in which it is included -- blindly copying and pasting fair use rationale to your own uploaded images is inappropriate, and a likely violation of Wikipedia:Fair use. Also, you should know that I am not an attorney, and the legal merit / value of the verbiage here is therefore questionable, although I have made good faith efforts to develop rationale that are appropriate for the types of fair use images I have personally uploaded.
Although of course you have the ability to edit this page as any other on Wikipedia, I respectfully request that you do not edit the contents directly. If you would like to leave me a suggestion or comment on this material, please do so on the Talk page. Thanks! Fairsing
