Fair use rationale for Image:Hc-hagedorn-150.jpg

Image:Hc-hagedorn-150.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.

Clean-up

Lots of things wrong here. Will try cleaning this up and adding refs if no one minds. We hope (talk) 23:29, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Canada did what?

"Canada later produced bok insulin, a mixture of zinc, protamine and porcine insulin" Really? The whole country of Canada got together and decided to make "bok insulin"? Something seems odd here, and what is "bok insulin"? --159.178.246.57 (talk) 12:38, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Common name

NPH insulin is the common name. The full term "Neutral protamine Hagedorn insulin" is almost never used. Thus I oppose changing the name of this article. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:35, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
