Fair use rationale for Image:RerunVanPelt.jpg

Image:RerunVanPelt.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.

Citation

I've run through the strips officially available on www.comics.com and found some references on Rerun's first mention and his first appearence. The problem is, I have the link, but not the how to cite it as an online ref. Do you know how I can cite a link as a ref? Anyone care to help add these?

Here's the story that pave way to Rerun's first reference:

http://comics.com/peanuts/?DateAfter=1950-10-02&DateBefore=2010-09-06&Order=d.DateStrip+ASC&PerPage=10&Search=&x=12&y=10&Page=774 http://comics.com/peanuts/?DateAfter=1950-10-02&DateBefore=2010-09-06&Order=d.DateStrip+ASC&PerPage=10&Search=&x=12&y=10&Page=775

The contributor that said things about Lucy kicking Linus out was right.

Rerun's first appearance: http://comics.com/peanuts/?DateAfter=1950-10-02&DateBefore=2010-09-06&Order=d.DateStrip+ASC&PerPage=10&Search=&x=12&y=10&Page=806

And that Rerun looks identical to Linus when he's old enough: http://comics.com/peanuts/?DateAfter=1950-10-02&DateBefore=2010-09-06&Order=d.DateStrip+ASC&PerPage=10&Search=&x=12&y=10&Page=836

Charlie Brown's first baseball victory and Rerun's gambling scandal that leads to the forfeit: http://comics.com/peanuts/?DateAfter=1950-10-02&DateBefore=2010-09-06&Order=d.DateStrip+ASC&PerPage=10&Search=&x=12&y=10&Page=807 http://comics.com/peanuts/?DateAfter=1950-10-02&DateBefore=2010-09-06&Order=d.DateStrip+ASC&PerPage=10&Search=&x=12&y=10&Page=808

Please delete the name "Matthew"

An editor has just added "Matthew" as Rerun's first name, using an unsourced inclusion of that name on the Lucy van Pelt page. This information is not accurate to the best of my knowledge. I'm avoiding editing Peanuts articles due to WP:COI concerns - could someone else check that this edit is unsourced and undo it? --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:33, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So what is Rerun's real name? Because Rerun is clearly a nickname. Kaffe och tårta (talk) 07:20, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I know of no other first name ever being established for Rerun. (Hardly shocking; Schroeder only ever gets one name, and we don't know if it's his first or his last.) --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:47, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Grandfather Felix

In "He's a Bully, Charlie Brown," Rerun discovers a photo of his grandfather -- another Linus/Rerun lookalike -- as a boy. The label on the photo gives the grandfather's name as "FELIX VAN PELT." Should Felix be listed as a family member for each of the van Pelt kids? (Since the special first aired in 2006, presumably Felix didn't really exist in the first 50+ years of the Peanuts universe.)

Incorrect final Peanuts special

The intro currently ends with the line "He also has an important role in the final Peanuts special, 2006's He's a Bully, Charlie Brown." However, He's a Bully was not the final Peanuts special; it was the last one for a while, but in 2011, we got Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown. Could someone who doesn't have a conflict of interest please replace the word "final" with the word "next"? --Nat Gertler (talk) 01:00, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I fixed it. Thanks for the correction. — Toughpigs (talk) 01:33, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
