Fair use rationale for Image:Logo UP.gif

Image:Logo UP.gif 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Controversy

Mexican journalist Carmen Aristegui published a series of reports on alleged plagiarism found in the thesis entitled "The Mexican presidentialism and Alvaro Obregon" from the current President of Mexico Enrique Peña Nieto, to obtain a degree in law at Panamerican University.

The university informed their community that a group of "distinguished members" would make an analysis of this thesis and issued an institutional statement dated August 28 informing that the graduating procedure of Enrique Peña Nieto complied with the requirements back in the year 1991 and the thesis of his own presents both original ideas and ideas from other authors treated in five different ways:

• Textual fragment reproduction of previously published works according to academic standards.

• Textual fragment reproduction without quotes or footer section of the literature.

• Support Reproductions in which there is no quoted footnote reference but in the reference section.

• Textual reproduction in which credit is given to the author of ambiguous or imprecise manner.

• Cases in which credit is given to the original author, but not the source from which the quotation was taken.

In the same statement the Law Faculty reports that proceeded to search rules that allow a proper response to a discovery of this nature and concluded that:

1) This is an unprecedented case in which there are no provisions in the applicable regulatory bodies titration procedure, a technical consultation to the National Autonomous University of Mexico was asked to confirm in writing this criterion.

2) The General Regulations from that institution does not apply to former students.

3) It is a consummated act on which it is impossible to proceed in any way.
