Fair use rationale for Image:Ladybird book covers large.jpg

Image:Ladybird book covers large.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.

Released in 2008

This is not an argument, this is fact. The Pirates series of 2009 was released in 2008. Is there a dispute? --< Nicht Nein! (talk) 03:16, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Have you thoght that 2009 is the official release year, but had an early release :) User ⁵⁰ 10:43, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Actually, that is what I believe it to be; an early release. I know they are 2009 sets. --< Nicht Nein! (talk) 13:36, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Copyright year of the 'New' Pirates is 2009. It is not a product line for year 2008. If you buy a set, check the bottom of the box and notice the copyright year. It is like cars. Car companies, for example they will release 'car model year 2009' in Oct./Nov.Dec. 2008. Generally speaking LEGO always has done early releases of sets and have stated they are product line for the coming new year. GoTLG 23:23, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

I know, I never said they are a 2008 product line. I was enforcing the point that they were released in 2008. --< Nicht Nein! (talk) 07:42, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

And besides it was only released in the U. S. A. in 2008 User ⁵⁰ 14:16, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Rewrite

The Pirates sets always had "soldiers" in them. For example "Pirates' Plunder", a 1993 set. The sets were not Spanish influenced in the beginning, so how can they have become "much more" Spanish influenced? Starting paragraph is general info about the theme, then the history starts in a separate paragraph. The "based on" tidbits are conjecture anyway and should probably be removed entirely, but if they are soldiers they wouldn't be based on a navy. --< Nicht Nein! (talk) 12:29, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Is It Worth Putting Up As Many Sets As We Can

Should we create a wikipedia article for each individual set? I know it would take a long time, but if everyone co-operated we could get quite a few on. I mean if we just scan the instructions in for a picture and write a bit of information and then everybody can contribute bit by bit. I am new to have a wikipedia account, are we allowed to create a page about anything? Hope to hear your replies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.25.62.120 (talk) 20:57, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
