Fair use rationale for Image:Time-magazine-cover-robert-johns-bulkley.jpg
Image:Time-magazine-cover-robert-johns-bulkley.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 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.

Image copyright problem with Image:Jim Farley.gif
The image Image:Jim Farley.gif is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
 * That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The following images also have this problem:

Image issue
Please note that File:Arthur J. Altmeyer-crop.jpg is not James Roosevelt. It was mistakenly labeled that, I have renamed it.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  16:57, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Popular vote?
This entry begins with "the popular vote proved conclusive." Surely this means "not conclusive"? Sajita (talk) 15:11, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Infoboxes
@-A-M-B-1996- Please avoid a triple revert and discuss instead. There is not consensus established to retain your edits merging the subject of primaries and conventions. The consensus at Wikipedia has been to have separate articles for primaries and conventions. I commend your intention in making a WP:BOLD edit, but please discuss before you restore it.

 * There is consensus by long practice in favor:
 * Infoboxes fully summarizing campaigns rather than following rote, legalistic rules (otherwise, we would exclude the Iowa caucuses from all articles)
 * Primary articles including caucuses and delegate conventions alongside popular primaries, as they always have on this website
 * Including delegate counts in primary infoboxes


 * Please stop edits against this consensus, which amount to vandalism and detract from the articles; I don't care if it's WP:BOLD. Consider contributing to the articles at all before you try resummarizing them. -A-M-B-1996- (talk) 23:51, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * @-A-M-B-1996- WP:BOLD by its nature is making edits without establishing a consensus. You have no consensus established to make these changes. It was well-intentioned, but you are being asked to step back and request consensus before restoring them. SecretName101 (talk) 00:11, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * @-A-M-B-1996- You also are not citing an actual consensus.
 * The first two "rules" you cite are not consensus. Also, we include Iowa caucuses because they are a vote open to the public as opposed to being closed to only due-paying party members or state convention delegates.
 * The third is only true for delegate counts arising from the primary themselves. Otherwise, Elizabeth Warren and other candidates would not be listed as having received 2020 delegates, since they received none in the final convention vote. SecretName101 (talk) 00:13, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * }}@-A-M-B-1996- Also look at 's earlier comments in this talk page for an example of users who were troubled by your misrepresentation of primaries. They were clearly troubled that Stevenson was represented as competing in a primary that he famously was not a candidate in. SecretName101 (talk) 18:27, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
