divorce statement in this article is unsourced

[edit]

This article states that Bob Anderson was forced to sell his magazine due to a divorce. I can't find a source for this statement, however, I have found sources online where Bob Anderson himself stated that he sold the magazine to pursue other business ventures.

I am a former employee of the magazine; several of my co-workers had been with the magazine before the Rodale acquisition and unanimously agreed that divorce proceedings were the reasons for the sale. (That said, I expect it would be hard to find a printed source making the connection, and it certainly doesn't weaken the article to remove the reason for the sale; it's most relevant only that the sale was made.) - Pjmorse 13:27, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pj, I am requesting that this statment be removed unless somebody finds a reliable source stating this to be a fact. People can speculate all they want about somebody's personal reasons for making changes in their lives, but this type of statement is harmful, in my opinion, to Bob Anderson and his family. It seems inappropriate and a violation of this man's personal and financial business. Just because divorce proceedings were in progress does not mean he sold the magazine for that reason.

But I agree with you that this statement does not affect the article, really, and I greatly appreciate your post. Thank you for taking time to respond to my discussion on here. KarateLady 02:48, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've tweaked the opening sentence of the sale section to simply state that Anderson broke up and sold the business, with no statements about why. Should do the trick. KL, I appreciate the work you've done on this article; it reads much better now. - Pjmorse 15:04, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Pj. I appreciate your hard work on here.

I did a slight rewrite on the portion in question and added a few internal links. I hope this sounds okay. I'm trying to follow guidelines that I've learned from some good folks on Wikipedia. Based on my research, Anderson World Publications went through changes, but Bob Anderson was still publishing FIT magazine and others up until 1987. Macmillan distributed many of his books too for a good number of years.

In any event, editing articles like this one has inspired me to get back to doing more running! I plan to shop for new running shoes this weekend. :) Cheers to you, KarateLady 16:18, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Runner'sWorld-cover.jpg

[edit]

Image:Runner'sWorld-cover.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
