Fair use rationale for Image:Rosamund_St_Viaduct.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rosamund_St_Viaduct.jpg. 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 ensure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. Rockfang (talk) 11:53, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Corrie characters
Hello Ben, you will probably never read this, seeing as you havent made an edit under this username for well over a year now, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Me and a few other editors are trying to bring some of the classic corrie characters up to a decent encyclopedic standard. I noticed, after seeing your vast improvements to the Coronation Street page, that you have access to Corrie literature and I wondered if any of it mentions anything about character creation? why they were brought in, bits on casting etc, writer intent. I've been trying to get some stuff on Hilda Ogden, but have found little available from recent sources on the net. If you ever read this, please get back to me, would be lovely to have your input in these articles.--  GunGagdin Moan 23:57, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Betty Turpin owner of the Rovers
Re your comment on Bet Gilroy's talk page that the brewery owned the pub. It was established in 2012 that Annie owned the Rovers and bequeathed it to Betty Turpin. The brewery were said to own it in 80s storylines but they have clearly been retconned out of existence.
