Fair use rationale for Image:Robin hood 01 400x300.jpg

[edit]

Image:Robin hood 01 400x300.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. BetacommandBot (talk) 17:32, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think this article is fine as a list of films and TV shows because there is already a main article on the impact on popular culture:Robin Hood in popular culture. QuintusPetillius (talk) 16:52, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Movies or DVD video releases

[edit]

While the 1960 Sword of Sherwood Forest is a new film featuring Greene reprising his role, the following are only compilations of episodes from the 1950s TV series, The Adventures of Robin Hood:

  1. 1956: Robin Hood's Greatest Adventures (also starring Donald Pleasence as Prince John)
  2. 1958: Robin Hood, the Movie
  3. 1958: Robin Hood: The Quest for the Crown

Is there any evidence that they were released in the cinema at the time, or are they the product of the 1990s videotape market? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.95.145.145 (talk) 19:08, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

the list's mess

[edit]

This list is a mess, considering the numerous Robin Hood productions over the years. It needs to be cleaned up. So we list live-action separate from animation (I suspect many wonder how many live-actions films there are, but its confuising to know when mixed in with animation, and its confusing to mix theatrical films with TV series since two are fundementlly diffrent mediums. I'm think something similar to DC and Marvel TV and films lists is needed. DoctorHver (talk) 03:24, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I Think this article now has the best setup, after two attments firstly It was not logical how it was set up in it first attempt properly organize this list proper adaptions vs parodies since it was dubious what was parody and what wasn't. So think the artilce will make most sense with the following "Þcatagories" l. films and TV directly based on the legend even if its comedy, 3. Robin Hood in Ivanhoe as Walter Scott probably took some liberties with the legend in his historical novel as Robin might not indeed be the main character in the novel. Even if I have never read the novel. 3. Pariodes were settings are fundementally changed such as time period etc or Robin Hood takes backstage with another character not in the orginal legend leading the film. 4. Animation as should be seperated from Live-action since its fundementally diffrent medium from live action for example Disney'S 1973 film might be proper retelling of what happens in the legend but in the original legend Robin Hood was human not a fox so because of this the 1973 film doesn't fit in with its live-action counterparts. 5. And finaly and peraphs the most controversial one is dividing the list into English langue films and TV the first 4 catagories vs foregin langue films. Well the argument is that since Robin Hood is originally an English Legend I think its most logical that the article actually reflects this fact. IF Robin Hood was modern literation majority of these foregin films would probably have never happened.DoctorHver (talk) 22:53, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
