Talk:Edward Stanley, 17th Earl of Derby

Fair use rationale for Image:Time-magazine-cover-egv-stanley.jpg

Image:Time-magazine-cover-egv-stanley.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.

Land holdings (Family section)

The year of the figures for acreage and income from land of this Earl is given as 1833, three decades before birth, and therefore irrelevant in an article about a man born in 1860s, as the estates could have expanded or contracted by the time he inherited them - unless this is a typo. Someone please check and preferably give a citation.Cloptonson (talk) 10:16, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

Screen portrayals

I am aware of two occasions he has been portrayed on tv but I am only certain about the actor in one of them, so I welcome help. The first occasion was in an opening episode of Edward and Mrs Simpson, when he escorts the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) on a visit to new housing in Liverpool during the interwar years, but I forgot the actor's name. The other occasion, for whom I do have a name, is in Winston Churchill: The Wilderness Years (1981) when he was played by Frank Middlemass in an episode covering Derby's championing of Lancashire cotton interests in relation to the issue of Indian independence. May there have been others?Cloptonson (talk) 21:42, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
