Fair use rationale for File:West Ham United FC logo.svg

File:West Ham United FC logo.svg 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 non-free use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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.

Ground change

I think this article needs some updating. I'm sure they play home games at Rush Green in Romford now. 62.232.92.194 (talk) 17:28, 18 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a reference to a published reliable source which verifies this information - thanks Arjayay (talk) 11:41, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2017/may/30-may/hammers-unveil-ambitious-ladies-plans for the managing director and info box:

I've done what I can with the infobox, but I've had to "cheat" several parameters to get the three names showing
I assume you would like the article title changed from "West Ham United L.F.C." to "West Ham United Ladies" ?
I will leave a redirect, so anyone looking for "L.F.C." will be automatically redirected to "Ladies"
I'll face the "Squad" changes after lunch - Arjayay (talk) 13:27, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'll look more into the squad but here's a good reference to start with - https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2017/july/23-july/west-ham-united-ladies-add-eleven-new-faces

Thank you

@Arjayay: I don't think a page move or a redirect is warranted here. L.F.C. in this case basically means "Ladies Football Club", which is almost identical to just "Ladies" in this context. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 20:39, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Can I recommend squad changes to reflect this team list here please? http://www.whufc.com/teams/ladies/squad — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.207.238.181 (talk) 16:30, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Name

Can someone find confirmation that "West Ham United W.F.C." is a name in actual use? The announced change suggests that the women's team is being more closely integrated into West Ham United FC rather than continuing to use a name that implies there's a separate women's/ladies' club.

That doesn't show "WFC" in use. Timrollpickering 10:59, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Arsenal W.F.C. which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 11:49, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
