Fair use rationale for Image:Cdg logo.jpg
Image:Cdg logo.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 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 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.

R-organisation
This article was originally copied verbatim (as far as I can see) from the CDG website which is copyrighted. I have removed the note: Written by J Buxton and taken from the CDG site.

So far I have split the article into sections, but there is still much to do. Most noticeably, some of the material is perhaps more appropriate to other articles such as Cave diving, or biographies. It needs to be wikified. Most importantly it needs to be written with emphasis on the CDG, and not get side tracked into other issues. I will return and make further edits, but this subject is outside my area of expertise, so please feel free to jump in and make corrections and further improvements.

 * I'm seriously considering reporting this article for copyright violation. A whole bunch of text is lifted directly from here. Despite toning down some of the peacock language a lot of it reads like an advert for the CDG. Any opinions? --TimTay (talk) 08:01, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Timtay >for copyright violation

I original copied it in from the CDG site just to put some thing in under an existing title, I am a member of the CDG as well as a member of the central committee of the CDG. In that respect I can use the material although I did mention it to CC and no objection was made.

I am editor of the CDG Lot and Dordogne cave guide (www.lot46.com) as well as co-editor of the CDG manual http://www.cavedivinggroup.org.uk/Zen-CDG/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5&products_id=43&zenid=4675ae632067e04fee650bfa9a99f7b1

If it reads like an advert it was not intended by John B if people are unhappy with it then I will remove the CDG derived text.

 * Good to hear from a fellow biker! If you have permission to re-use the content then there is no copyright violation. It would be nice to try to maintain a neutral point of view though. Keep up your work on the article and I'll do what I can to assist. --TimTay (talk) 18:43, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

No problem, although the work seems to be well under way after my initial efforts.

All the best Andrew —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.105.221.86 (talk) 10:26, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
