Start Class

[edit]

I changed the article's grading to Start Class, since there is a fair amount of info and references are frequent. --Bearbear 15:57, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:K com4.jpg

[edit]

Image:K com4.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 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.

An alternate usage?

[edit]

The term "Goldfish Warning" has another meaning, albeit not necessarily a widespread one, which was coined as a reference to the name of this series but has since taken on a life of its own in some circles. It is used to refer to a practice of 'jamming' radio or other communications during combat by blanketing the approriate frequencies with music, as well as to any music being used for that purpose; the usage originates with the fanfic series Undocumented Features, where the first piece of music so used was the theme song to this anime.

I found this page while attempting (with little success) to determine just how far beyond Undocumented Features itself the usage had spread. I am quite certain that I have seen it in other contexts, but I am unable to recall where at this time.

This alternate meaning seems to me to be the sort of thing which would be appropriate to list in a "References in other media" or similar section of the article; however, there is presently no such section, and the article itself is presently short enough that an explanation of the alternate usage - if added - would constitute such a large fraction of the article as to give a potentially inaccurate impression of the usage's relative notability.

It seems odd to me that the usage is not mentioned, so naturally I want to add it. I do recognize that others may disagree, whether on grounds of topicality or of notability or for other reasons. Opinions?
