Fair use rationale for Image:Nit patna logo.gif

Image:Nit patna logo.gif 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 Wikipedia articles 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 16:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File:National Institute of Technology Patna(NITPatna).jpg Nominated for speedy Deletion

An image used in this article, File:National Institute of Technology Patna(NITPatna).jpg, has been nominated for speedy deletion at Wikimedia Commons for the following reason: Copyright violations

What should I do?

Don't panic; deletions can take a little longer at Commons than they do on Wikipedia. This gives you an opportunity to contest the deletion (although please review Commons guidelines before doing so). The best way to contest this form of deletion is by posting on the image talk page.

If the image is non-free then you may need to upload it to Wikipedia (Commons does not allow fair use)
If the image isn't freely licensed and there is no fair use rationale then it cannot be uploaded or used.
If the image has already been deleted you may want to try Commons Undeletion Request

National Institute of Technology, Patna → National Institute of Technology Patna – The correct name is National Institute of Technology Patna as per their official website [1]. Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 14:03, 9 March 2013 (UTC) BigJolly9 (talk) 21:59, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support: Follows the pattern of numerous other similar institutions in India (how many national institutes of technology does a country need?). Skinsmoke (talk) 21:34, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: The official name is National Institute of Technology, Patna per Gazette Notification http://www.nitc.ac.in/nitc/rti/NIT-ACT.pdf. Statutorily the name has a comma, and not without it. The official website must be a clerical mistake and nothing else. Moreover the comma has been used as a disambiguation and it follows WP:NATURAL.
