[edit] Scandal

The men's basketball page shouldn't have mention of the women's team. There should be a new section either soley for the women's team, or a section just devoted to OSU scandals. --Majorpayne27 18:15, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

If you want to add a section on scandal, that's fine. What was added, however, was vague, factually inaccurate ("bribes from academic boosters") and poorly written.--Sam Harmon 01:10, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place for any section regarding the scandal. The section I wrote was very vague, however, if it were any more precise it would have been nearly the largest section, which would overshadow what the article is really about. I added the section to replace the edits I made to the basketball section, since it also did not seem like the appropriate place to mention the scandal. If a section involving the scandals around the program is to exist, either the rest of this article should be extended, or a whole new article should be dedicated to it.--Majorpayne27 03:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Buckeye NutHouse

Hi. I've been putting together pages for each of the Big Ten's basketball student sections and was wondering if someone would be interested in expanding and maintaining that of the Buckeye NutHouse. Thanks! --BroadSt Bully 13:55, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I would love to help, I was a member of the nuthouse last year, and will be this upcoming year as well.--Majorpayne27 01:44, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Baseball

Ohio State has a baseball team, right? Bob Todd is the coach of that team, right? Shouldn't there be a section of this article that discusses the baseball team? Dismas|^(talk) 03:32, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ohio State buckeyes logo.png

Image:Ohio State buckeyes logo.png 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 Wikipedia 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 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 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.
