Fair use rationale for File:Bigg Boss Kannada Season 4 Logo.jpg[edit]

File:Bigg Boss Kannada Season 4 Logo.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 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 non-free use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Non-free 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.

Requested move 9 August 2018[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: consensus to move the season articles to Bigg Boss Kannada (season 1), Bigg Boss Kannada (season 2), Bigg Boss Kannada (season 3), Bigg Boss Kannada (season 4), and Bigg Boss Kannada (season 5), per the discussion below. The main series article is not moved at this time. Dekimasuよ! 19:21, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

– The season logos and on-air logos all use just "Bigg Boss" without any additional word discribing the language or version of the show. The season 2 logo, seen in its article, says "season 2" which gives more emphasis that the seasons were not in the style of "Bigg Boss #". Since neither naming the series "Bigg Boss Kannada" nor using a number after its name, was part of the naming style used by the show, per WP:NCTV they should use the style of "Bigg Boss (Kannada season #). The reason why the language is used here is since there are 7 TV shows named Bigg Boss and both country-adjective (Indian) and/or year would still leave these versions somewhat insufficiently disambiguated from one another, as all 7 are from India and all shown during the same years (with 2 sets of 2 shows being debuted on the same year). Please note: This move request was done with the knowledge that there are other Bigg Boss shows which will all get subsequent requests. Please discuss only the proposed articles.

Oppose 1st, move season articles to Bigg Boss Kannada (season 1), etc. - "Kannada" is a language, not a country, so this doesn't follow WP:NCTV. Its better to WP:NATURALDISAMBIG as "Bigg Boss Kannada" because the show is referred to in this style commonly. -- Netoholic @ 01:21, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose 1st, move season articles to Bigg Boss Kannada (season 1), etc. - My reasoning for this is different than Netoholic's reason. I don't see anything wrong in certain circumstances using language as a disambiguator when acceptable. Not to nitpick here but I don't understand how using (Kannada TV series) for this edition is any different than using (Hindi TV series) was acceptable for the original version. My actual reason for opposing this move as proposed is due to WP:COMMONNAME because the official production company, the streaming platform that is under the same ownership as the TV broadcaster and reliable sources that can be found by searching Google [1] often use the name Bigg Boss Kannada when talking specifically about this version. Voot, the official streaming platform, also uses a modified logo on their page for season 5 which shows the name as Bigg Boss ಕನ್ನಡ and ಕನ್ನಡ (according to Google Translator) means Kannada in the Kannada language. So I recommend the parent article stay at Bigg Boss Kannada and all season articles be moved to Bigg Boss Kannada (season 1) because of WP:COMMONNAME and WP:ENGLISH. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 07:55, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Alucard 16's research does indeed show that there is a tendency for the common name to be "Bigg Boss Kannada", by sources and the production company. So regardless of the official name being without the language this seems like a good alternative. Remove my proposal for the series name change, and change the seasons option to Bigg Boss Kannada (season #). --Gonnym (talk) 09:38, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose 1st, move season articles to Bigg Boss Kannada (season 1), etc. Piling on, esp. as per Alucard 16 (and Gonnym) above. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 14:54, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bigg Boss Kannada → Bigg Boss (Kannada TV series) – the reason for this move is because many other version have got it moved like this Bigg Boss (Hindi TV series), Bigg Boss (Malayalam TV series) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a01:4c8:54:9b5e:d128:554a:157e:a85e (talk) 21:48, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
