Fair use rationale for Image:Man called horse.jpg

Image:Man called horse.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 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.

Section "Representation of cultures"

The section now consists of a first paragraph, added by FT2 on 2 July 2007, that seems to imply the film is historically accurate, and a second paragraph, added by Joefernandez on 4 February 2008, which seems to be saying the exact opposite.

The second paragraph is editorializing and unreferenced. It is not stated whether the Jacquelyn Kilpatrick quotation is from her book Celluloid Indians or from another book or article by her. (At any rate, the rather cautious phrasing in the quotation that the film "must be discussed in terms of reality and authenticity" hardly proves Kilpatrick to be a "heavy" critic of it.)

In spite of its shortcomings, I was reluctant to just remove the second paragraph because it seems to contain a valid point that might be "saved" by adding a more precise reference and removing the editorializing. I added the {{contradiction}} tag in the hope that somebody will be able to check some sources, work the section over and make a nice, balanced synthesis :D --Bwiki (talk) 23:14, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
