Fair use rationale for Image:Douglass Bulldog.jpg

Image:Douglass Bulldog.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 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.

Name of place as Fred Douglass School, and NRHP application doc available

I've added, in bold, mention of what appears the NRHP program name for the place, Fred Douglass School. It sounds a bit unusual to me, i have not heard of other use of informal "Fred Douglass" but rather hear of Frederick Douglass. The NRHP program name for the place is recorded in the National Register's NRIS database, and in this case is listed there as Fred Douglass School. The NRIS database, however, has data entry typos and I wonder in this case if it is correct or not, if a data entry person just chose to enter something informal, or whther the NRHP application for the place actually shows it that way. The NRHP application would be available for free upon anyone's request to the National Register. doncram (talk) 08:55, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, actually for Missouri, the NRHP applications are online, available at http://www.dnr.mo.gov/shpo/Boone.htm for Boone County NRHP sites. And there the school is in fact named Fred Douglass School. Anyhow, there is additional info there about the architecture and so on; this is a source which could be used to develop this article. doncram (talk) 08:59, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
