Fair use rationale for Image:Veendam.gif

Image:Veendam.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 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.

• "Look-Out" etc, all other names are usually put in bold with a redirect created to this article.
  • Done
• "was founder member" a founder member.
  • Done
• "the Eerste Klasse Noord" you'll need to tell us what that is.
  • Expanded a bit
• "partook" took part
  • Done
• "home stadion" stadium.
  • Done
• "other juveniles from" young players?
  • Done
• "finished 7th out of 7 sides" -> "bottom of the league of seven teams in their inaugural season".
  • Done
• Why were the Netherlands playing an English club team? Was it some kind of exhibition match??
  • It was; added
• "players earned 15 guilders per win, 10 per draw and 5 per loss" convert to a more recognisable currency and inflate.
  • Done
• The article suffers a bit from recentism. All three history sections are roughly the same size yet the first section covers 66 years, the second 35 and the third 18. Needs more balance.
  • A bit of a cheap trick but I amended the year ranges in the headings; the second and third sections have about the same year spans now. Overall, the emphasis lays of course a bit more on the club's heyday during the 1980s and the situation in the 2010s.
• "local DWM factory" what was made there?
  • Added
• "eliminated on aggregate" did they play in a two-legged tie then?
  • Yes; Veendam won 2–1 at home but lost 3–0 in the return match
• "of €3,2 million" 3.2
  • Done
• "The club dissolved" was dissolved.
  • Done
• "reconstruction of " made by instead of "of"?
  • Done
• "badges throughout their history" but you only mention the 2011 one?
  • The refs (at least the ones I have) do not exactly reflect what the former badges did look like, but I added some info about the one used from 1997 to 2011.
• "a blue calotte which" that's a dab link.
  • Fixed
• ""for a fee of €3,2 million.[23]" didn't you already say this?
  • Shortened
• In Honours, "Eerste Klasse Noord" is overlinked.
  • Fixed

That's all I have on a quick read. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:14, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
