Fair use rationale for Image:Timothy Olyphant - Deadwood.jpg

Image:Timothy Olyphant - Deadwood.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 08:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Um, some inaccuracy

What gives? He is sited in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modesto%2C_California as being a Modesto Native, then in his own article,in the personal section, it says he was born in hawaii and raised in southern california, but then, under his picture, it says he was born Birmingham, England. Well, which is it? Finally, in the same personal section it seems like it is referring to him with thename Murad. What the hell? --69.181.56.90 05:57, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

From what I can tell, he was born in Hawaii, so the UK info needs to be changed. It looks like vandal 62.30.54.107 originally introduced the false information here, and then 69.156.110.11 changed the infobox to reflect the vandal's edit here. This shouldn't happen on Wikipedia; we should have a system of tighter controls that carefully monitors anonymous edits, but for some reason we don't. —Viriditas | Talk 06:31, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
