Fair use rationale for Image:Barouk mountain.gif

Image:Barouk mountain.gif 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 Wikipedia: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.

Image of Niha Shouf (Cave Castle)

The image of Niha Cave Castle near the bottom of the page looks like a composite of two images: Lebanese hills plus something that looks like Petra Rocks in Jordan. It certainly does not resemble any other images of Niha Shouf on the internet, and has definitely been photoshopped. Can someone please verify or refute this? Thanks.

this image is for Niha Cave Castle, taken from a side view i think, u can find the same picture in the official website of the reserve. It does resemble Petra Rocks because it is carved in a mountain as the PetraBassem18 (talk) 00:25, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Biodiversity: Fauna

Hi! There is a picture of Caracal caracal in the article, but the species is not mentioned in the text. Does it occur in the reserve, or did it? --Karsten Kohls (talk) 11:56, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
