Talk:Coat of arms of the BBC

Fair use rationale for Image:BBC Virtual Crest.JPG
Image:BBC Virtual Crest.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 01:01, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Bbc logo before 1970.png
The image Image:Bbc logo before 1970.png 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.

Blazon of Arms
This article seems to be missing the most important thing - a copy of the full blazon (the written description of the arms). Assuming there are no copyright issues, could someone please add this as I cannot presently find the blazon online. DWaterson (talk) 23:20, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Move?
"Arms of the BBC" seems far more appropriate than the double-of abomination that is "Coat of arms of the BBC". | ComplainingCamel (talk) 21:57, 17 February 2022 (UTC)


 * I can see your concern on “double of”, but I totally disagree with the proposed “arms of the BBC”. The subject is a coat of arms, so why would you remove that phrase from the title? “Arms of the BBC” would make the article title confusing and less understood.
