Talk:Iron (metaphor)

Article origin
The works of Allah are intractable indeed! This article was born when I cleaned up the Iron (disambiguation) page and tried to turn the deletion of many entries into a joke in the talk page (see Talk:Iron (disambiguation)), to make my deletion less offensive. To my surprize (actually not very unexpected), there turned out to be quite a few "iron-clad" articles in wikipedia, and I was hit by Listmania. Naturally suspecting that here there soon to come a young smartass who knows that wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information only too well and nominates my fruits of hard toil for deletion right away, I started digging/fishing/googling/mining the wwweb to create appearances of a solidish article. To my (now real) surprize I quickly found out that the iron metaphor is indeed a well-researched and well-referenced topic! So this article is iron safe now, and I may go away fom the keyboard without fear. Mukadderat 11:38, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:TIH.jpg
Image:TIH.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.
