Fair use rationale for Image:Lapu-lapu City logo.png

Image:Lapu-lapu City logo.png 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.

Lapu-Lapu, Philippines → Lapu-Lapu City – Per new consensus at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines/Archive47#Moving forward on barangays plus some MOSPHIL discussion and the updated WP:MOSPHIL, regarding the simplification of title convention of Philippine cities into three types (<plain name> like Malolos, <usual disambiguation> like San Carlos, Negros Occidental, and <City suffix format> like Davao City), and abandoning the "x, Philippines" format, which is not a common name in most reliable sources and unnatural with respect to common usage here.

For the case of Lapu-Lapu City, plain name does not fit because "Lapu-Lapu" refers to the hero (hence it redirects to Lapulapu). It can also be a common name here in Luzon for a kind of fish. That's why the best article title goes to Lapu-Lapu City. Lapu-Lapu (city) is not natural. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 17:23, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
