Fair use rationale for Image:RIC 0396-r.jpg
editImage:RIC 0396-r.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 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.
Pliny
editPliny does not give the description ascribed to him in the current version of this article. In H.N. XXXV 155-56, he merely says "idem magnificat Arcesilaum, L. Luculli familiarem, cuius proplasmata pluris venire solita artificibus ipsis quam aliorum opera; [156] ab hoc factam Venerem Genetricem in foro Caesaris et, priusquam absolveretur, festinatione dedicandi positam;" The identification with the Venus Fréjus, et al. is based on numismatic evidence, not Pliny. This article has been worked into a tangle.--Wetman (talk) 09:46, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
Merge suggestion
editSuggest that there is no need for a disambiguation page for "Venus Genetrix". A single article can refer to the "epithet" and the sculptural motif. 207.109.197.154 (talk) 03:12, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
move to Venus Genetrix
editRather than a merge, the proper title to this article is Venus Genetrix, which already exists as a disambiguation page: an unecessary runaround for the reader.--Wetman (talk) 20:01, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
