Fair use rationale for Image:Nisei 3x09.jpg

edit
 

Image:Nisei 3x09.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 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.

Ishimaru/Shiro Zama

Seems worth noting that Ishimaru/Shiro Zama is undoubtedly a reference to Unit 731 director Ishii Shiro. RobertM525 (talk) 10:10, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, if you can find a source for it, by all means, feel free to post it in the production section. Quiddity99 (talk) 11:37, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Quiddity99Reply
Yeah, that's the tricky part: it's obvious but I can't source it... >.< RobertM525 (talk) 21:23, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Unfortunately even the most obvious thing will get tagged and deleted at some point without a third party source for it. :( My advise would be not posting it until we can find something. Hopefully there's something out there mentioning it. Quiddity99 (talk) 21:33, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Quiddity99Reply

  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):

  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  

Comments

edit
  • Lead needs specific broadcast date (I was going to fix it, but didn't want to mess up a template I'm unfamiliar with)
  • '"PopLit, PopCult and The X-Files" - no need for quotation marks
  • The themes section might be better suited to come after the production section, but that's just my opinion
  • Italicize The New York Times
  • "Frank Spotnitz was assigned writing duties for, "Nisei"," - removed that first comma - also, the seventh episode of that season?
  • "Most notably, Spotnitz script" -> the Spotnitz script or Spotnitz's script
  • You say there were several scenes requiring stunt work from Duchovny, but wasn't it only the train jumping scene? Or am I misreading it?
  • Make sure Fox is linked on its first mention in article body, and unlink it elsewhere
  • Unlink United Kingdom

Otherwise, article looks good. Screenshot seems justified, and there are no dab or external link issues. I'll place this review on hold for the usual seven days. Thanks, Ruby 2010/2013 17:12, 2 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Alright, I believe I've addressed everything. Thanks for reviewing!--Gen. Quon (talk) 18:55, 2 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
Passing article for GA. Nice work! Ruby 2010/2013 02:28, 3 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Title?

edit

why the title? it is japanese for "2nd generation".

it is sometimes misused in english in place of nikkei (japanese-american), but even then, how does that EITHER apply to this episode?

they are japanese scientists in the US. they are neither nikkei NOR nisei. did the episode focus on their CHILDREN? 209.172.23.183 (talk) 22:47, 4 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
