Fair use rationale for Image:Pghpolicephoto.jpg

Image:Pghpolicephoto.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 06:20, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Dawn of the dead

In the original Dawn of the Dead, the police officers were from Philadelphia, not Pittsburgh. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.33.235.214 (talk) 00:44, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

The Hill Street Blues connection has never been substantiated and an urban rumour for years and should be removed unless a citation can be given. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.98.230.30 (talk) 01:59, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

April 2009 shootings

It seems like the shooting incident deserves its own article. KConWiki (talk) 01:11, 5 April 2009 (UTC)


What Type of Equipment?

Can someone add what type of equipment the Pittsburgh Police Department officers are issued? For instance, what type of pistol and rifle (if any) are used while on patrol. --KineticRic (talk) 05:02, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
