Say-Bull

I think they do, because the news website you got them from own the copyright has it for private use. THe ones we have there now are in use barely skip through becasuse Ford have released them to promote the vehicle, adn the vehicle is not yet on sale. Please reread WP:FUC, it will help you a lot.

To clarify: an image, such as the existing one, is "fair use" for us because Mercury released that image to promote the new Sable. Technically, we are "promoting" the car, so not only are allowed to use that image, I believe they WANT us to use it.

An image from an automotive magazine is the property of that magazine, taken and published for its subscribers. Since we are not profiting from it there is really no imminent problem, but using fair use images has become really dicey recently. --Sable232 02:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think there is a way to use them. Our best bet is to wait until the car begins production (late April is the last I saw) and get a free image. As soon as the local L-M dealer gets one I am taking a test drive, and I'll try to get a picture. --Sable232 02:19, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if it is temporary, maybe it can slip through, But those Fair use image patrollers are not letting anythign go lately. IF it is fair use, ti si getting deleted on the spot. So, I guess we can use them, but it will be risky. Karrmann 02:24, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:2008 ford taurus x.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:2008 ford taurus x.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Jusjih 14:12, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:2008-taurus-x---2-1-.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:2008-taurus-x---2-1-.jpg. 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. MER-C 10:35, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
