Page Organization

[edit]

Besides the lead, the article has one, long block of page labeled 'history'. In order to make more coherent structure, it should be broken down into subtopics like 'Background', 'Supreme Court Ruling', 'Precedents', etc. --Tateharsh (talk) 22:33, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Grammatically questionable

[edit]

At the top, the sentence "That money is made does not make it impossible for a use to be fair; it is merely one of the components of a fair use analysis." appears. The first part of the sentence (before the semicolon) appears to be grammatically ambiguous, and I can't even figure out what it's trying to say. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.38.89.214 (talk) 14:56, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Would you prefer a comma after "made"? If you added a comma, it would read: That money is made, does not make it impossible for a use to be fair[.] The only difficulty here is the first four words being a dependent clause, and this serves as a subject to the verb does. The word order, if that is your complaint, is not so unusual that you, a native speaker of English, would never have seen it before. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.99.198.72 (talk) 08:17, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
