Fair use rationale for Image:Saabtrollsticker.jpg

edit
 

Image:Saabtrollsticker.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.

The article currently says The name Trollhättan is translated as "troll's bonnet". Now, my knowledge od Swedish is very limited, but wouldn't it be more correct to say "the troll's bonnet"? --BjKa (talk) 14:13, 10 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your knowledge of English is also well limited, for it actually reads: "The name Trollhättan is translated as "troll's bonnet". The latter part "hätta" could also mean mountain top"

Which backs up my guesswork that the placename Trollhättan is akin to English placenames like Cleckheaton, Earlsheaton, Hanging Heaton and so forth, which English language linguist, Swedishman Eliert Ekwall believes to mean (of the -heaton bit) hill https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eilert_Ekwall — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.121.254.236 (talk) 04:37, 17 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
