Talk:Oldham Evening Chronicle

Move
I propose a move to change the article name to 'Oldham Evening Chronicle', with redirects from this article page and also another from a new article name 'Oldham Chronicle' making the paper easier to find from the search engine. Also, the article is now confusing, mostly due to recent edits, as it suggests the paper has been renamed, from 'Oldham Chronicle' to 'Oldham Chronicle'. Peteb16 18:41, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:OldhamChronicle.jpg
Image:OldhamChronicle.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 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.BetacommandBot 04:43, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Establishment
According to this source and this, the paper was established in 1880. I wonder if the spate of news stories today may have taken their information from our article? I will have a dig around. - Sitush (talk) 19:45, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
