Fair use rationale for Image:Topbar1.gif

Image:Topbar1.gif 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.

Please stop bad editing/creating

The school had the wrong year listing, missed out on pointing out it was once an all girls school. Please keep the information correct and maybe try and add a reference every time you copy/paste something in here.

• Specific text to be added or removed under History: REMOVE ALL OF HISTORY AND REPLACE WITH:

St Monica’s College, Epping was founded in 1964. A group of Form 1 female students commenced their secondary education attached to St Peter’s Primary School under the direction of Sister Matthias Crowe sgs and assumed the temporary name of ‘St Peter’s High School’.

The College at Epping was planned and building commenced in 1966. The name, St Monica’s, was bestowed on the College by Archbishop Justin Simonds in 1966. The Forms 1 and II classes, already operational in Epping and Reservoir, came together under one name and on one site, when the buildings were officially blessed and opened by the Auxiliary Bishop of Melbourne, Bishop Lawrence Patrick Moran on 5 February, 1967. The school developed its own uniform, motto and educational traditions.

The College became co-educational in 1978, and a second, junior secondary campus (on 7.3 hectares) was opened in November by Senator Fred Chaney and blest by Archbishop Frank Little with the words “the true foundations of this school are not concrete and rocks, but Jesus Christ.” The Sisters of the Good Samaritan were responsible for the College and provided the Principal until December, 1990. The College’s first lay Principal, Mr Brian E. Hanley was appointed in 1990 and commenced in 1991.

In 1999, the College acquired a country property at Strath Creek. It was named Ostia by the College Board and was blest by Father Bob Wood and opened by John Haberman on 19 March 2000.

@JordanfromSMC: As far as I can tell the URL given does not support the change requested, but I may have missed something on a busy page. There can also be issues where people have linked to a page where the news items on that page have been subject to dynamic change and link rot which is a problem.

• Reason for the change: these are premierships the College has to won. I have seen other school's Wikipedia with this information.
• References supporting change: https://saccss.com.au/

•  Not done: The reference source given does not directly in itself support the content given. It possibly may be achieved by clicking buttons, but that is not acceptable. On a personal viewpoint I'd suggest this content is also probably non-sustainable; and better placed on the college website. I have a feeling this would be declined if resubmittted properly sourced.

• Specific image to be added or removed: SMC LOGO
• Reason for the change: Not sure how to change the St Monica's College Logo, but the logo is outdated. The appropriate one is on our website. I have uploaded an image a while ago just wanting to get the approval for you to replace the image.

 Not done for now: Is there a new uploaded logo on Wikimedia Commons? Please only submit one request if possible. PK650 (talk) 05:29, 1 September 2021 (UTC)

PK650, I'm not quite sure what happened here, presumably the lack of section headers broke the COI request answer tool? I've added headers and closed the ones which you presumably replied done to. 15 (talk) 20:23, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

I believe I've effectively covered the not done for now as not done after taking some looks as to whether they could be done. With the queue list as it is it has to be wasteful of resources for volunteers to keep re-visiting the old ones on the list. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 10:59, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
