License Plates strike again!
I am completely sick of List of U.S. state license plates. It looked worthwhile, but its not worth the effort to keep it going. It seems that people just don't care to add a rationale themselves and instead they shove it on my plate. I guess I failed at that article, and I'll support deletion the next time the measure comes up.

Fair use rationale for Image:Iowa_License_Plate_2007.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Iowa_License_Plate_2007.gif. 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 fair use images 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. MECU ≈ talk 23:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!
Just got your comment on User:Feba/Bikes talk page. Thanks for noticing it^^; The person was talking about a friend who had said that cycling's benefits make you live so much longer that you actually harm the enviroment more than a driver. Obviously, works of fiction and falsehood, not to mention... if it's that good for you (as a person), doesn't it kinda make up for the evil? Plus, if more people went car free, they'd be more likely to purchase local produce (as you can't haul things as far as a bike as you can on a truck!), thus reducing their emissions quite a bit. -_ Phoeba WrightOBJECTION! 05:48, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
