Talk:Russian Tea Room/Archive 1

Fair use rationale for Image:RUSSIAN TEA ROOM.jpg
Image:RUSSIAN TEA ROOM.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.

 * I have a new Russian Tea Room image, that might be better suited for the article. Additionally, I am the author of the image and have licensed it under a CC license for wikipedia use. This would avoid the issues raised with the copyright status of the current image. I don't want to swap it without notification/discussion, so please let me know if there are objections to its addition. Image is below.
