Fair use rationale for Image:Detective comics annual 6.jpg

Image:Detective comics annual 6.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.

Death?

I'm sorry, but I have noticed that a lot of people have been listing deaths left and right, and until editors or there is a body in the comics, listing a death makes you look like a jackass in the future. Am I saying no one is dead? No. I am saying that DC editors need to list and show these deaths to avoid mistakes, not us users. 98.27.190.112 (talk) 05:07, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not a hundred percent sure of what you are saying, but I have two points. Please assume good faith on the part of other Wikipedia editors, that is a central policy/tenet OF Wikipedia. Secondly, if it turns out a comic book character is NOT dead (such as if they reappear in next week's comic) it's a simple matter of seconds to fix the problem. So I do not see the difficulty.
