Fair use rationale for File:SenseiChokeiKishaba.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:SenseiChokeiKishaba.jpg. 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 ensure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 23:44, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

ok I have added some more information. Please let me know if it is enough to keep the image. And if not what else can I do to keep the image. Nipsonanomhmata (talk) 01:26, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Minor edits

Hello Nipsonanomhmata, I noticed that virtually all of your recent edits are marked as minor edits, but some of them do not appear to be minor edits—for example, adding people to the Karateka template (other contributors might disagree with additions). This is not a criticism of your contributions, and I appreciate that what does or doesn't count as 'minor' might not always be clearly defined; I just thought I would let you know in case you had accidentally set an option in your text editor to mark all your edits as minor edits. Janggeom (talk) 04:49, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

It's accidental. I generally edit when I'm reading and am in auto-mode and don't usually think too much about the minor/major edit option. Just click and click. I'll try to pay more attention although I'm surprised that they haven't figured a way to automate that so that we don't have to think about it. Nipsonanomhmata (talk) 13:25, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

You might be aware of this already, but if not, try clicking on your "my preferences" link at the top of your Wikipedia window, then click the "Editing" tab, and see if the "Mark all edits minor by default" option (near the middle of the "Advanced Options" box) is ticked. If it is, that would explain what has happened, and could then be deselected if you wish. Trust this helps. Janggeom (talk) 15:00, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for that but I'm guilty of clicking the option manually. btw could I ask a favor whilst you are here. Could you check George Donahue and Paris Janos for me. I think that George Donahue deserves to have the notability tag removed from his banner. Many thanks. Nipsonanomhmata (talk) 15:04, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Hello again, I think the best answer to a notability tag is to supply suitable references that answer (in the positive) the general question, "Is this subject notable according to Wikipedia's definition?" In a brief search for sources, I have not yet found anything that clearly indicates Donahue's notability. You might, however, have access to sources (especially printed ones) that I am not aware of. I notice that you have over 2,500 edits on Wikipedia, so am assuming you are at least somewhat familiar with concepts of notability, but if not, you should find Wikipedia's guide on notability and WPMA's guide on notability useful. Feel welcome to discuss points further if you think I can be of help. Janggeom (talk) 16:31, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. To be honest I haven't come across this notability issue all that often. Probably three times in all. Up till now I just add more references until the issue goes away. But when I see someone who is notable being tagged like that. It makes you feel bad for that person because you know they are notable. But WP notability doesn't really care if they are notable or not. WP just wants the right kind of reference. They should call it something else like "referencability" instead of casting aspertions on someone's notability. Nipsonanomhmata (talk) 21:28, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

It's probably worth mentioning that WPMA is currently on a drive to delete articles of non-notable subjects. This could be why you are noticing (or running into) notability tags more often these days. It started here. Janggeom (talk) 00:46, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
