Fair use rationale for Image:HMAS Jervis bay.jpg
Image:HMAS Jervis bay.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 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.

Info Box and other info in page.
I feel the info box should have individual sections for the specs after each rebuild, as the differences were substantial, such as GT passenger and car capacity and new engines installed in Greece. it is standard practice of WikiProject Ships/Tables to have a box to represent each rebuild, and I am not really sure why my work was undone in that regard. Some example of articles with info boxs like I propose: Black Watch (ship), MS SeaFrance Molière, GTS Finnjet and list goes on. The other point is there seems to be a lot of specs mention in the article,especially Design and construction which should be put into the info box, as per Wiki ships, and the standard of Wikipedia.

 * My alterations to the infobox were an attempt to condense down the information. I am happy to undo this.
 * Technical specifications are included in the body of the article because the infobox is only meant to be a summary, and the article body can be used to elaborate, link to unfamiliar terms, and more clearly place technical data into the relevant context. This is acceptable practice (see featured articles like HMAS Australia (1911) or HMAS Melbourne (R21)). -- saberwyn 03:20, 14 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for letting me know about technical data in the text, I wasn't 100% sure, its just I've never really seen any with it, but I do only concentrate on passenger ships. Thanks again Mbruce (talk) 11:57, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
