Talk:New York State Canal System
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Requested move
New York Barge Canal → New York State Canal System … Rationale: The term "New York Barge Canal" is both inaccurate and obsolete. For starters, the canal system in question was called "New York State Barge Canal," not "New York Barge Canal." However, the canal system has not been known by that term since 1992 and is now the "New York State Canal System." (The term "New York State Barge Canal" is no longer used, either for the Erie Canal itself, or for the entire canal system.) The term "New York State Canal System" currently redirects to this current page, but needs to have its own page, as it is the official name of functioning canal system in New York today. The term "New York State Barge Canal" should redirect to the proposed new page.
It appears to not be possible to move this page without admin help due to the fact that "New York State Canal System" redirects to this page.Ebedgert 23:45, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:New York State Canal Logo.png
Image:New York State Canal 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 insure 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.
