Fair use rationale for Image:Half life 2 source console nightfall.jpg
Image:Half life 2 source console nightfall.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.

Console (video game CLI) → In-game console – Per WP:NATURAL this makes sense and renders parenthetical disambiguation unnecessary. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 06:31, 23 March 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. –Ammarpad (talk) 06:42, 30 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Oppose - Not NATURAL. The concept is usually spoken about as running a "console command" and I think that would be a much better destination. I know we can't use what we'd really prefer, which is Console (video games) or Console (video gaming) might work also, but I'm actually surprised to find those don't already redirect to video game console. -- Netoholic @ 10:02, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
