Talk:Mudhouse Mansion

I have tried to fix this up, but it desperately needs the attention of a careful local historian, especially in the details of dates of transfer and construction of the building.DavidOaks 05:18, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

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

Style/date
Yes, it needed a ref (whole article needs refs). Examples of the same style dated securely to 1870: Arhictectural reference for dating the appearance of the Mansard roof in American residential architecture, for an area relatively near to this site:” The introduction of the French Revival style to the world community was aided by the occurence of two World's Fair Expositions in Paris in 1855 and 1867. Americans readily adapted the Mansard Style and it became synonymous with large buildings and ornate detailing. Even Elsah had a dramatic manse built atop its east bluff -- a landmark prominent to all who travelled by river. Known as "Notch Cliff", this summer home was of particular note because of its exaggerated Mansard roof! Built in 1872, it may have set the tone for several building projects in the Elsah valley. Notch Cliff burned in 1911.” DavidOaks (talk) 13:21, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
