1945

How can they have started planning a car to Formula One dimensions, when F1 wasn't introduced until the end of 1946?

They didn't, that was the Alta GP car. Alta never built a Formula One car, the car that were entered for the F1 World Championship were either the GP car (1950-51) or the Alta F2 car in 1952. Actually, there never was such a thing as the Alta auto racing team, all of the cars were privately entered. Maybe this page shouldn't actually exist? Pyrope 18:39, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, now I come to ready this page properly, it's complete rubbish. I'll rewrite... Pyrope 21:24, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Alta logo.gif

Image:Alta logo.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.

"I" notice? Since when did an automated bot have the same status as a sentient being? There can be no I without id. Anyway, concerns addressed. Pyrop e 12:22, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
