Talk:Joe Biden 2008 presidential campaign/Archive 1

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

Failed GA
The article has a lot of promise, but for several reasons, it fails good article review.

1. Prose-The lead section is too short for the length of the article and needs to include more content from the article body. The article wording might need some improvements, such as reducing wordiness and occasional inserts of opinion. I worked to address some of these concerns, but the article might need some more work in this matter.

2. Verifiable- Generally well sourced, but a few sources needed tags were added.

3. Coverage- I like the coverage, but I think the last section needs to be longer to sum up some of Biden's other policy positions. It doesn't need to be really long, maybe about twice as big as it is right now.

4. Neutral- Generally good. Esp. after a few fixes I did.

5. Stable check. 6. Images- check

Please help review other GA nominees at Good article nominations. Feel free to renominate the article when concerns are addressed. Thanks.User:calbear22 (talk) 20:25, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Passed GA
Passes 1-6. All suggestions have for improvement have been meant. The article might need a check for NPOV, but such errors in this area are minor.User:calbear22 (talk) 00:09, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with File:Obama Biden logo.svg
The image File:Obama Biden logo.svg 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.
 * That this article is linked to from the image description page.

 * I've added a second fur on the image page, which hopefully will resolve this. Wasted Time R (talk) 01:43, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
