Distance[edit]

As a denzien of Hopkins, I must question where the distance measurement comes from. St. Louis Park/Edina are the only cities between Hopkins and Minneapolis, and they aren't anywhere near 13 miles wide. It's possible that it's being measured from downtown to downtown, but that's a kinda silly way to measure distance between two almost entierly developed cities, and even if it were to stand, there should be some sort of comment saying where the measurements are from, boarder to boarder or center to center.

You my good sir are quite mistaken. Take that street that goes by the city, its st. louis park, (with Edina to the south) then Minneapolis. Nothing in between --Donatj 03:41, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid I don't understand what you just said. Could you rephrase it? I still protest that it couldn't be anywheres near 13 miles. I'm staring at a map right now, it couldn't be much more than 2 miles boarder to boarder. Thanatosimii 05:36, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the error comes from a wholesale lifting of text out of [1], which says that Hopkins is 13 minutes west. Minutes, not miles. Quite different. Thanatosimii 05:39, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:HopkinsLogo.jpg[edit]

Image:HopkinsLogo.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 ensure 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.
