Fair use rationale for Image:Scientologycross.jpg

Image:Scientologycross.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 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.BetacommandBot 21:43, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rosy Cross

Usefulness

Isn't this article completely useless now that (along with many other symbols) the Scientology cross image has been deleted? AndroidCat (talk) 05:03, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree - without the image, it's entirely pointless. I don't see why an image of the Scientology cross couldn't be justified as fair use on this page; but if it can't, there's really no point having the page at all. Terraxos (talk) 16:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Let's delete this article.S. M. Sullivan (talk) 08:06, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, the article is unnecessary with the article Symbols of Scientology. Personal thoughts that filling wikipedia with articles about Scientology being silly aside. This article isn't necessary with another article covering it well enough, along with many others. This should be deleted.--Kahn Iceay 21:20, 20 June 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kahniceay (talk • contribs)

I'll have a go at expanding this article over the next few days. We'll see then if it's suitable for merging back. I suspect not, since it would take up a disproportionate amount of space in its ostensible parent article. -- ChrisO (talk) 23:29, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
