Fair use rationale for Image:Feed rss20 80x15 2.png

edit
 

Image:Feed rss20 80x15 2.png 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 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.

Does this article need citations?

For example, does this statement need a citation? 'These were first popularized as "Best viewed in..." buttons by Netscape and Microsoft during the browser wars.' Garbagetime (talk) 10:15, 22 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

badge or button?

edit

Are these primarily called web badges or web buttons?

Wikipedia itself has: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:88_%C3%97_31_buttons

A few examples of archives of such images call them "buttons" or "web buttons"

Are there citations of calling these things "web badges", or should we change the name of this article to "Web buttons"? Tantek (talk) 16:59, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Also 4 out of 5 of the "External links" as of 2024-07-29 also call them "buttons:
