Fair use rationale for Image:Enterprise - S2E01 - Shockwave, Part 2.jpg
edit
Image:Enterprise - S2E01 - Shockwave, Part 2.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 04:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Ratings
editI was trying to find a bit more context for the ratings of this episode.[1] I found it interesting that a rerun of Shockwave part 2 (USA Today via TrekWeb[2]) only a few weeks later during the World Series still managed 4.2 million viewers, not a huge drop from the 4.9 million it got first time round, unusual compared to the ratings dropoff more like 50% I've seen for other reruns. (I wonder how many viewers were like me and knew Star Trek would be rerun endlessly and were in no hurry to watch it on first broadcast, versus how many people were dedicated fans willing to watch the same episode again and again?)
The ratings for other science fiction or fantasy genre shows that week is somewhat interesting, with various new shows getting strong ratings and Charmed beating Enterprise.[3] Of particular interest to sci-fi fans though is Firefly (TV Series). I am fairly sure this was the same week that the Firefly debuted (Enterprise on Wednesday and Firefly on Friday) and the first episode actually broadcast was The Train Job.[4]

It took long enough to write even this little note, and it will take even longer to double check everything (maybe dig out a direct reference to USA Today, instead of an indirect one), and rephrase it into suitable text for an encyclopedia article. That is something I might come back around and do myself eventually but if anyone else is interested please do feel free to go ahead and expand the article. -- 109.79.178.107 (talk) 12:59, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
