Fair use rationale for Image:Rings of Power GEN ScreenShot1.jpg.gif

Image:Rings of Power GEN ScreenShot1.jpg.gif 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.

Comments

• "in separate states" is this in the US? It's not totally clear.
• Lead calls Buc "young" but the main body doesn't.
• Plot sections don't normally require citation but it's a little odd that this one is (that's good!) but the "Buc creates a mighty palace..." final sentence is not...
• "as a DOS and" any idea which DOS?
• "down a certain input" i think we all want to know what this "certain input" is!
• "of the "Scarborough Faire" musical" I don't really know what this means nor why someone would complain about it?
• "selling through its entire" is "through" needed at all here?

That's all I have, nice piece of work. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:58, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

• ... that Electronic Arts' makeshift Sega Genesis development kits interfered with television signals, allowing Andy Gavin to use white noise patterns on his dorm room's television as an aid for programming the video game Rings of Power? Source: "When you turned it on, all the TVs on the same electrical circuit started to spit and get a ton of noise on them. People would complain in my dorm about their reception. They didn’t put two and two together. But it was totally the Genesis screwing up all their TVs. You could tell, in someone else’s dorm room, even, what the Genesis was up to. When it crashed, the noise pattern would change. I could see how busy the graphics hardware was from the interference patterns. I would leave the TV across the room on because it was a useful debugging aid." ([1])
  • ALT1:... that the music of the video game Rings of Power was composed by a first-year medical student? Source: "Amiga programmer and musician Alexander Hinds, who is a first-year student at Stanford Medical School..." (Rings of Power instruction manual, inner cover)

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Cat's Tuxedo: I would somehow clarify the main hook to mention how the Genesis development was the source of the white noise, not the television itself. Once you do that, this can pass. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:27, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

Done. Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 17:40, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

@Cat's Tuxedo: great, I've also just added a link for "development kits" in the hook. Pass. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:52, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
