Heavens, what a shockingly poorly written edit by 80.43.2.64. No structure, full of spelling and grammar mistakes and of doubtful quality and accuracy. --Domberlic 02:43, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

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

I give you OYO!
Found a nice map of the Oyo Empire on a website. The good people there gave me permission to add it to the wiki commons. License and everything should be straight. You are all welcome :)Scott Free 22:17, 25 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much. But I can't seem to find the year this is. Do you know about when Oyo extended as depicted in the map? Picaroon (t) 01:07, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * The date isn't clear, but it is supposed to be the Oyo Empire at its full extent not counting tributary kingdoms like Dahomey. This period in time would be the 18th century.  That's when Oyo was most powerful.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4shizzal (talk • contribs) 12:44, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

This segment (in the article’s first paragraph) seems a bit grand / advertise-y / non-encyclopaedic, no? — “ and rose through the outstanding organizational and administrative skills of the Yoruba people “. — Asdfjrjjj (talk) 19:42, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
