Bottom division?

The article about the Football League says Football League Two is the third highest division, not the lowest. Can someone clarify this? --Awiseman 17:24, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is the lowest of the three divisions of the Football League. They are the second, third and fourth highest levels of English football, with the FA Premier League being first. --rbrwr ^± 21:59, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The third division aka Coca Cola League Nine is the bottom tier of League football. It must have been an error on the Football League article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomlinson0405 (talk • contribs) 21:39, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wags

I removed the word "wags" from "some wags have even renamed it the Rochdale division", since I don't think it's NPOV. I'm not that well versed in English slang so if I am in error here concering NPOV please correct me. Thanks. -RomeW 08:22, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The History paragraph says Rochhdale have promoted only once and relegated only once in their history. In fact they have been relegated twice; the other time was at the end of the 1958-59 season. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.243.69.67 (talk) 00:39, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Rochdale badge.gif

Image:Rochdale badge.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 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.
