Fair use rationale for Image:CenterTech.jpg

Image:CenterTech.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 Wikipedia: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 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.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia

Scugsbi and JaimGusch - I saw your recent edits to this article. They are out of scope of what Wikipedia covers, so I reverted them.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and encyclopedias summarize information which is already published. If you want your contributions to Wikipedia to stand, use citations after the statements you make. Also, in compliance with the reliable sources policy, never cite anything published by the subject of an article. Cite papers published by a third party, like a magazine. Post here if you have questions or comments. Go to the WP:TEAHOUSE to get other opinions or help learning how to use Wikipedia. I appreciate the effort and people will train you if you want to contribute by the rules. Blue Rasberry (talk) 21:06, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
