Fair use rationale for Image:JSTCOLOR.JPG

[edit]

Image:JSTCOLOR.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 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 10:02, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SV or STS?

[edit]

The Tenacious is noted as the STS (sail training ship) in the text, but the SV (sail vessel) in the name. So, which is it? A ship only has one prefix, so she isn't both.31.208.103.192 (talk) 13:17, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ships can be referred to with different prefixes for a variety of reasons, often the preference of the writer for the propulsion type (eg SV, SS, MV, MS), function (eg STS, MT, FV, RMS) or affiliation (eg HMS, USS). - Davidships (talk) 00:37, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"The largest wooden ship still afloat"

[edit]

This claim, cited to Belfast City Council, seems questionable at best, particularly as the BCC doesn't specify its criteria. Elsewhere in the source they do refer to the vessel's length (65m) and displacement (c.690 tonnes). There are other wooden ships afloat that are longer and of higher displacement, most obviously USS Constitution (93m, 1576 tons displacement). - Davidships (talk) 01:15, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
