Portal talk:United States/Selected article/2006, week 29

Article selected for July 16-23, 2006, for Portal:United States/Selected article

Grunge music
The portal has recently featured articles on literature, military, a national park (geography), a president (politics), and next week will be space race (technology/history). To mix up the topics, I found grunge music in the list of featured articles. I think this would be a good pick to keep variety in choice of topics. --Aude ( talk contribs ) 22:07, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Comments

 * Question - do we allow fair use photos on the Portal page? I was under the impression that fair use images are not allowed outside of the Main article space.  Thanks, Johntex\talk 23:54, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't think we have a clear answer on that. Generally, I avoid fair-use pictures on portals, in the same way they aren't allowed on the main page.  But, I think main page exceptions are made for featured articles that have no other pictures available.  I think that principle applies here. --Aude ( talk contribs ) 00:00, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I have found a free-license photo on Flickr that we can use, staying away from fair use issues. --Aude ( talk contribs ) 00:20, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
