Fair use rationale for Image:Manston parish.jpg[edit]

Image:Manston parish.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.

Comments[edit]

The convention is to use the county, not the district as part of the title when there is more one placenames. I have pointed this out to User:Hamletpride, (who has made wholesale changes like this!). In addition the Wikipedia Notes on writing about settlements frown upon the use of bullet points, and this article is nothing else. Further the use of the word suburb is also inappropriate in this instance; it means a part of a city or large town which was once self contained, such as eg Croydon and the London conurbation. The fact that Manston is also a civil parish in its own right has also been ignored. I am rewriting the article, which has in any case been lifted almost wholesale from the Manston CP website, with no references being used to verify individual statements.

Migrant centre[edit]

The 'history' section is a bit out of date, with no reference to the Migrant centre! --Brian Josephson (talk) 17:30, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is yet a red link: Manston Asylum Processing Centre. A first step in your direction. --Cabanero (talk) 10:43, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you understand the system: a red link means nothing is there. That will happen whatever you put between those brackets if there's no page for something, such as cat mat. You try it! --Brian Josephson (talk) 12:34, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
