Talk:Joe McDoakes

Failed GA
This article was not very comprehensive to me in presenting the subject, it is referenced, but the majority of them are for the cast and crew section. Consider expanding the history a bit, and removing some OR statement and adding references. You may also want to peer review it to flesh out more problems.

Fair use rationale for Image:Joe McDoakes title card.jpg
Image:Joe McDoakes title card.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.

removed sentence
Just for the record, I've removed this sentence: The Joe McDoakes films were unique in that they were the only one-reel (10-minute) live-action comedies on the market, making them convenient fillers on moviehouse bills.  They certainly weren't the only Hollywood live-action one-reelers in production -- MGM's Pete Smith Specialties and Columbia's Three Stooges were other examples produced in these same years. --Lockley (talk) 05:38, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
