Fair use rationale for Image:Symonds-a problem in greek ethics.gif

Image:Symonds-a problem in greek ethics.gif 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 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.

Regardless of whether using just an image of the dustjacket of a book is potentially a copyright violation that requires a fair-use rationale in order to avert, the fact is that the image here couldn't possibly be an image of a 1901 edition as stated: For one thing, the typeface at the top didn't exist in 1901. It's actually an image of the cover of a 1983 edition. The image caption needs correction. Wbkelley 14:08, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Collaboration with Havelock Ellis

The article does not mention Symond's role as a collaborator and co-author with Havelock Ellis for Sexual inversion (1897), which was a pioneering work in sexology. I think this is more relevant than who might possibly have had a crush on his daughter.129.177.213.54 (talk) 13:19, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
