Fair use rationale for Image:Lefteris Papadopoulos.JPG

Image:Lefteris Papadopoulos.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 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.BetacommandBot 04:33, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My edit

My -unnecessarily- reverted edit was not on suppressing anybody's ethnicity. It was about calling 'refugees' people who were immigrants due to a population exchange and calling 'Asia Minor' what is Turkey for a thousand years in Western languages.

You're playing with words. A Greek lyricist is different from being an ethnic Greek lyricist. Just like how Jim Belushi is an American actor but an ethnic Albanian. But you're removing the entire wording of his ethnic Greek identity thus rendering the ethnic identity of this person unintelligible. This is problematic considering your other edits are of the same pattern. Étienne Dolet (talk) 18:26, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If the sources say his father was expelled from Turkey, when it was Turkey and not the Ottoman Empire, and say he was from a village near Bursa, why not say exactly that rather than some vague "Asia Minor" non-country? Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 01:30, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the sources don't mention Turkey. They mention the name of the village and the Bursa location. I just assumed that in 1924 it was ok to mention Turkey. However, please feel free to modify the information as needed. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 01:35, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The autobiographic source says that the father, who came from the village Mιχαλίτσι (Michalitsi) near Bursa (which today is Karacabey), lost his parents as a child and was sent to a children's home in the Prince Islands (in the Marmara Sea). From there he was expelled in 1924 (together with all the others who had not lived in Istanbul long enough to be included in the exceptions from the Population Exchange). This would indicate that he was "displaced" from his village during the war period. In that case the use of "Turkey" is a bit problematic, as is "Ottoman Empire". Could we say something like "a village near Bursa in todays Turkey"? The mother came from a village (Pakanski?) near Novorossiysk. --T*U (talk) 07:16, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you T*U. I agree. Please be my guest and modify it accordingly. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 14:55, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
