Fair use rationale for Image:AFSCMEandHillary.jpg

Image:AFSCMEandHillary.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 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.

Hank Aaron?

Baseball player Hank Aaron has donated money to her campaign but is he a supporter and should he be added to this list? VarunRajendran (talk) 18:03, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Not unless he's made a public endorsement. SImply giving money does not constitute endorsement.Fatswaller (talk) 21:09, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Lack of Citations

This page has a very serious problem; most sections are almost entirely lacking in citations, and no-one seems interested to provide them. As it stands names are being added to the article at whim, which creates a potential problem that people wrongly listed as Clinton endorsers may object to their inclusion here. Unless this situation improves pretty soon I'm inclined to nominate the article for deletion.86.145.1.63 (talk) 09:04, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

I agree. I'm adding separate citation tags for now, and have added a link to the official Clinton campaign site for their list of endorsements. I wouldn't recomment the article be deleted, but names without citations should be deleted if this isn't quickly corrected. Flatterworld (talk) 22:02, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
What are we using to qualify as a citation/endorsement? Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper attended and spoke at the rally held here right before our caucus (he introduced Fmr Mayor and Hillary National Co-Chair Wellington Webb who then introduced Bill Clinton) but I don't see him on the list. Is his attendance at that rally (there's video online) an acceptable "source?" Thanks! Smart Ways (talk) 22:54, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Due to the extensive usage of {{fact}} that is now on employed on this page, the page is currently tripping one of the technical limitations that exist for performance reasons. {{fact}} has one "ifexists" call per usage, and this page now has 581 "expensive parser function uses" where only 500 are allowed. Since this only affect the category that "fact" will select, it will not be a big problem, however, "Now you know !" :D See also: Category:Pages with too many expensive parser function calls and Misplaced Pages:Template limits. --TheDJ (talk • contribs) 20:38, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Would this explain why the category appears in Category:Articles with invalid date parameter in template even though there isn't actually an error in the wikitext? Harryboyles 12:34, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Request to add a hat for Hillary Rodham Clinton presidential campaign endorsements

Barack Obama's president campaign endorsements page does not include his middle name, an it makes it easier to find. Can we add the redirect from List of Hillary Clinton presidential campaign endorsements to make this simpler? It is me i think (talk) 22:21, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind, it is there It is me i think (talk) 22:22, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Request to removed "Rodham" from documents title

John Mcain and Barack Obama's articles do not include their middle names, so I request "Rodham" to be removed in adherence to wikipedia's NPOV policy, found here http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view It is me i think (talk) 22:37, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

It's not her middle name (which is Diane), it's her last name previous to marriage (Rodham), and she uses it as part of her full name. See her Senate webpage or the first reference in any New York Times story about her. This question has been discussed several times in the past, and always resolved in favor of the form you see.

Ok no worries, was not familiar with the earlier discussion. thanks It is me i think (talk) 02:31, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
