Talk:Santa Claus in film

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

Merger_proposal
This article is almost identical to the "Santa Claus on film" section of the Santa Claus in Northern American culture article. I only noticed this while doing FUR's for some of the article images, so I have no interest either way. But there is no need for two identical articles - or sections of articles - dealing with the same subject. Johnmc (talk) 14:17, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I approve wholeheartedly, though technically, the section of the other article could simply be removed and replaced by a link here, then this article can be cleaned up of its problems (namely the external links...).--Boffob (talk) 15:33, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Bad Santa film.jpg
The image Image:Bad Santa film.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
 * That this article is linked to from the image description page.
