Fair use rationale for Image:Syzygy 3x13.jpg

[edit]

Image:Syzygy 3x13.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.

Will review soon. Ruby 2010/2013 18:06, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • WP:EUPHEMISM: ..."then she makes a move on Mulder ..." A romantic move? Or violent?
  • I think you should lay out who wrote and directed the episode before getting into the director's opinion
  • "David Duchovny later explained that the comedic episode of the series..." Comedic episodes?
  • Ryan Reynolds' guest appearance is not sourced (you can add a citation directly to the image caption)
  • No need to link United Kingdom
  • "Todd VanDerWerff of The A.V. Club gave a B-, describing it as "an entertaining hour that never rises to the level of those other episodes" and considering it Carter tried to do something similar to Darin Morgan's scripts for "Humbug" and "War of the Coprophages" without the same success - "the laughs here are emptier than they were the week before in 'Coprophages'" - and adding that "every time you think the episode has figured out a way to plant its foot firmly in comedic territory, there's a horribly judged moment of 'drama,' like Mulder's final monologue." - This is a pretty sloppily written sentence that could probably be turned into several
  • "noted, rather bluntly, that the episode" - "rather bluntly" seems like your opinion, not the reviewers
  • "Chris Carter was somewhat disappointed in the reaction that the episode, stating that there were hints within the episode that people did not get." - could be rewritten
  • Another euphemism - "to get together"

Sorry about the delay in reviewing. I'll place the article on hold for seven days while the above comments get looked at. Thanks, Ruby 2010/2013 17:35, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I believe I've addressed all the issues. Also, I'm going to keep the reference to comedic episodes, because quite a few (mostly season 6 and 7) episodes were supposed to be funny. Thanks for taking a look at this.--Gen. Quon (talk) 23:59, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
My only issue with "comedic episode" was your use of it. "David Duchovny later explained that the comedic episode of the series..." Shouldn't it be comedic episodes? (i.e., plural?) Or are you referring only to "Syzygy"? Irregardless, the article looks good. Passing for GA. Nice work! Ruby 2010/2013 18:16, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Haha, I'm stupid for not being able to read. Sorry about that. Thanks!--Gen. Quon (talk) 20:28, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
