Disputed non-free use rationale for File:United Airlines logo 1974-1993.png

File:Copyright-problem.svg

Thank you for uploading :File:United Airlines logo 1974-1993.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content.

Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

Good article reassessment for [[Alaska Airlines]]

Alaska Airlines has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the reassessment page. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. Real4jyy (talk) 02:10, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

:Thanks for letting me know about this. As a major contributor to this article years ago, although I do agree that some unsourced content needs to have sources added, I fail to see the issue with the fact that it uses "excessive primary sources." Why is this an issue anyway? It's hard enough to get proper citations on articles; why make it harder by discouraging use of primary sources? I strongly disagree with this policy anyway and I could understand if the concern if this was a featured article, but to make this a reason to re-assess the Good Article status is a bit of a stretch IMO.

:Also, any reason why you don't just find primary sources yourself instead of making others do the work to meet this stupid rule? Compdude123 (talk) 04:13, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
