Fair use rationale for Image:Follicle histology.gif

Image:Follicle histology.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.

...which means...?

Well, presumably zona pellucida came from a language which is not english, which means that it will have a meaning in said language. Can anyone care to elaborate, in English, what that meaning is? Thanks. Nonagonal Spider (talk) 07:20, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added the Latin meaning of zona pellucida, which is "transparent zone"

Technical jargon in first para?!

"The zona pellucida first appears in multilaminar primary oocytes."

Multilaminar primary oocyte is???? Need a description or a link for that technical term. Someone who doesn't know what zona pellucida is will not know what multilaminar primary oocyte is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.111.232.2 (talk) 13:28, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I simplified the terms in the article's introduction, and moved the technical jargon to other sections. I clarified that an oocyte is an egg cell, for example. WildlifeMama (talk) 05:32, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
