Fair use rationale for Image:Vila Viçosa Grão Cruz.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Vila Viçosa Grão Cruz.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.

Correct Name of the Order?
[edit]The name of this order is given inconsistantly through this article. The correction translation of the name of the order from Portuguese is obviously the 'Order of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception of Vila Vicosa', even though theologically the term the 'Immaculate Conception of Our Lady' would make more sense, i.e., a conception is an event predicated of a person, not a person of a conception. In other words, the Virgin Mary did not immaculately conceive herself 67.52.199.50 (talk) 21:16, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
Adding References
[edit]As one has probably notices, it is difficult to obtain references that are not in Italian or Portuguese. Most of the English references only pertain to individuals who have received the knighthood. It is hoped that other people will work on this topic.

- I would not be surprised if the references in other languages also were similar. Have you actually seen them? Before trying to find them it would be useful to know if any of them providedsignificantinformation to show the impotance.DGG (talk) 17:35, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
Relating to the references, I have been fortunate to not only have seen the works and articles but have them in my library which is rather extensive. I can make these available to other scholars. Additionally, I do read Italian, Spanish, some Portuguese and French. Relating to third party references. most of the references are by leading scholars in the world of chivalry. Alas, chivalry and chivalric orders are specific and elite topics. A rather severe limitation with Wikipedia is that many 'scholars' who write on a specific area are not qualified, cannot read but English, do not possess a significant personal library on the topic and are not professors or scholars in the areas in which they write. I have taught graduate courses in Religious and Military Orders, Chivalry and Medieval History for eight years. DGG has been very helpful in assisting me in the aforementioned matter.
