Fair use rationale for Image:Front Page Irish War News.JPG
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Front Page Irish War News.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit]The article metnions "Harrel's 'Battle of Clontarf'", although no explanation is given as to what this actually means. Could anyone enlighten us?--Damac (talk) 00:26, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- In a nutshell, "Harrel's 'Battle of Clontarf'" was the confrontation that took place between the Irish Volunteers and the King's Own Scottish Borderers and DMP following the landing of IV arms at Howth in 1914, just before the outbreak of WW1. The DMP officer in charge, Assistant Commissioner W.V Harrel, on his own initiative, called out a detachment of the army. In the stand-off they recovered about twenty rifles but largely thanks to distractions by Darrell Figgis, Bulmer Hobson and Seán Mac Diarmada, most of the arms and ammunition were safely dispersed. The frustration of the soldiers exploded on their return to the city at Bachelor's Walk, when they opened fire on a jeering crowd killing several civilians. Harrel was blamed for the 'incident' and was 'moved on'.RashersTierney (talk) 00:13, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
