Fair use rationale for Image:MiddletownCTseal1.jpg

Image:MiddletownCTseal1.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 Misplaced Pages 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 Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages 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 04:31, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

This is wrong. Coryright does not attach to public symbols in the first place. You do not know the law.

Native Americans

Regarding the statement about settlers "purchasing" Native American lands, I'm not sure the word "purchase" does justice to the complexity of the issue and therefore may be deceptive. --Pgagnon999 (talk) 05:07, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Pgagnon is introducing wild speculation to suit his own political ends into this article. He has destroyed previous references. It is a shame that such hate-filled bigotry would spoil an article. Ignorance again rules?

Information added in good faith, very NPOV, and included solid references from Middletown city website itself. No existing references removed (there were none to begin with). Those interested should refer to the article's history for details. Also interesting is a history of edits from user at the Connecticut gov. (Middletown gov?) state IP address and a seemingly related Wesleyan Univeristy IP. --Pgagnon999 (talk) 00:28, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

P.S. A wikipedia admin restored deletions and left warning for IP user--Pgagnon999 (talk) 01:12, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Please note that this is the third time Pgagnon has made personal threats to posters.
