Fair use rationale for File:MASHBook.jpg

File:MASHBook.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.

Hello, just to let you know that on the MASH volume published in Italy in 1970, Richard Hooker is said to be born in Mount Vernon (NY), on January 11th, 1915. He is said to have been hired as a reporter for the New York Sun from 1937 to 1950. The italian edition of MASH I'm referring to was published by an important Italian publishing house, Garzanti, usually reliable in its authors' biographies. The news I'm reporting were published on the first editiong, August 1970. 82.59.194.49 (talk) 13:18, 11 June 2009 (UTC)Sciltian Gastaldi

Shouldn't this article be under Hornberger's name, with Hooker as a redirect to it? It seems strange that he would be listed under his pseudonym. I'll look for other examples to compare to, and if I find that this is atypical (if authors more commonly known by their pseudonyms are generally listed under their own names) and no one responds, I'll move the page.

Well that was quick. Checking Trevanian and Saki, it appears that when the pseudonym is more well known, wikipedia lists under the pseudonym. Seems strange to me, but so be it. Geoff Canyon (talk) 16:35, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
