Fair use rationale for Image:RandolphSeal.jpg

Image:RandolphSeal.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.

Identity crisis?

The article and now the town is is known as "Randolph" in Wikipedia. It is called "The Township of Randolph" on its website, which is named Randolph Township Web Site. http://www.randolphnj.org. The schools are called (as they always have been) Randolph Township Schools.

I don't mind dropping the "Township" business, but it ought to be done consistently, and according to WP:RS. Why is it being done anyway? Deliberately by authorities or by us editors?

Can we get consistency for Randolph? If so, does this affect every township in the state? And when did this happen? Student7 (talk) 18:57, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There was (it appears) a poorly attended "consensus" to change Randolph Township to Randolph in the category https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2013_July_26#Category:Randolph_Township.2C_New_Jersey_and_category:Margate_City.2C_New_Jersey. That is pretty much it. One or two people at the most weighing in. But doesn't agree with WP:RS. Really should agree with a reliable source and not be a Wikipedia "opinion." IMO!

We need accuracy. Just because something is embarrassing for the town doesn't mean it shouldn't be on the page.

David Browne's cheating, arson, and meltdown is one of the most important political events to ever occur in Randolph. He was the superintendent, after all. He should be included in "famous" people at least, or have a section dedicated to him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7080:9901:5B60:146:ADF1:812C:FEBB (talk) 01:59, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
