Fair use rationale for Image:Thoroldflag.gif

Image:Thoroldflag.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 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.

Image copyright problem with Image:Blkhawks.gif

The image Image:Blkhawks.gif is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The following images also have this problem:

Twister and Drive-in

I'm pretty sure that's an urban legend. I'm from the area and I remember that story, and I also heard it happening in Hamilton too. Is there a source (ie a newspaper article)? Cause again, pretty sure it's an urban legend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.236.147.118 (talk) 20:43, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed move to Thorold

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved Mattinbgn (talk) 10:38, 30 January 2011 (UTC) Closed by involved editor but closure endorse as correct result at AN/I. Dpmuk (talk) 12:07, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I propose, per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and common sense, to place this article at Thorold. The other uses are not simply "Thorold", in the sense that the city is. A hatnote can redirect readers to Thorold (disambiguation). - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 03:38, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Appears to meet primary topic criteria, though I reserve the right to remove my support if evidence of the city in Ontario not being primary topic is provided. --Born2cycle (talk) 09:52, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support Clear cut case. Presume that it is intended that an associated move of Thorold → Thorold (disambiguation) is intended. Skinsmoke (talk) 09:56, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ ^τ _¢ 17:45, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support appears to be the primary topic. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 22:49, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support as the city looks like the primary topic. --Polaron | Talk 15:34, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
