Fair use rationale for Image:Sibelius avid blue th.png
Image:Sibelius avid blue th.png 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.

Company timeline
This was based on a timeline on the company's web site and constituted fair use; in any case the text was removed from the company's web site some time ago and so copyright is unlikely to be an issue. 93.96.236.8 (talk) 23:54, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Save Sibelius article
Save Sibelius

This page was originally a paragraph in an article being constructed in Sandbox about the activist and musician, Derek Williams. It was migrated in an attempt to reduce the size of the Williams article, despite adding to his notability. However, the article was nominated for speedy deletion on the grounds that it was not a notable campaign. After that, there was one vote to Keep, one to Merge to Sibelius (software) and another to Merge to Sibelius Software, so it’s hard to see this as ‘consensus’ to Merge to Sibelius Software (different page to Sibelius (software)). Summary of the 4 votes:
 * Speedy deletion
 * Keep
 * Merge to Sibelius (software)
 * Merge to Sibelius Software

No option received more than one vote, so the current consensus is 3/1 not to erase the content, and 2/1 to Merge to either Sibelius (software) or Sibelius Software (one of which should be renamed to avoid confusion). Another option is to reintegrate the content back to the Derek Williams article, and see what fate that suffers. If the entire Williams article ends up being deleted along similar lines, then mention could still be made of the Save Sibelius campaign under the articles: orphaned technology, abandonware, planned obsolescence, asset stripping Chrisdevelop (talk) 04:46, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
