Fair use rationale for Image:Nerihorse.jpg
Image:Nerihorse.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Ruby Neri
If she stopped doing graffiti in the late 1990s, as mentioned in the article, and has presumably stopped working under the name Reminisce (?), should this article title be changed? She's been working under her given name, Ruby Neri, for decades. I don't have the know-how for this but want to suggest it happen. It seems better to title the article Ruby Neri, with a well-developed section that covers her work as Reminisce. And for Reminisce to direct to Ruby Neri, not the other way around.StaceyEOB (talk) 02:22, 7 February 2015 (UTC)


 * The reason for this is that this article was written back in 2007, roughly around the same time as the Mission School article, and there were at least some published articles on "Reminisce" as a notable 90s graffiti artist, while there were next to no notable publication sources on Ruby Neri as a current artist. Wikipedia bases everything on the relative importance topics are given in external, verifiable publication sources, and at that time, this was decidedly weighted toward her earlier career as a graffiti artist, hence, the article was weighted that way, including using her pseudonym. Since then, her profile has become higher, and if I'm not mistaken, there was an Art in America article about her and her work. It is probably time to update this article based on those sources and, yes, move the article accordingly. (The Mission School article could use updating too.) 50.141.86.128 (talk) 07:12, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
