| # <span id="8" />All images must comply with policy | |||

| # <span id="10" />If you're here to whine and complain that ''But <place image name here> is just like my image and isn't tagged for deletion'' I will tag that image too, I just haven't gotten around to it yet. | |||
| # <span id="11" /> There is a very clear policy regarding having fair use rationales on fair use images. This policy is located at ] point #10(c). Rationales must be provided for each use of an image. Also please see ]. | |||
| # <span id="12" /> We do not permit fair use, copyrighted images to exist on Misplaced Pages if rationales for that image's use are not provided. Please see ] #6. Also please see the ]'s resolution on this matter at ] point #4. | |||
| # <span id="13" /> For quite some time, we have attempted to encourage people to provide rationales. The results of this effort have been dismal at best. | |||
| # <span id="14" /> The creator of this bot has come under fire for performing this work manually. One of the main complaints is that the effort to tag images could just as readily be spent providing rationales. This is not the case; the uploader and/or user of each fair use image is the person who should provide the rationale. A non-involved editor can not know under what principles the user of an image intended such use as fair use. | |||
| # <span id="15" /> The use of fair use, copyrighted images on the Wikimedia servers is covered by United States law. Our policies with respect to this bot's actions are based on that law. Please see ]. | |||
| # <span id="16" /> Bug reports are very welcome; tagging images as this bot is doing per policy is not a bug. | |||
