Fair use rationale for Image:DZAR SonshineRadio.jpg

Image:DZAR SonshineRadio.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.

name change from DZAM to DZAR

in reply to this comment in my talk page:

"Is there a Radio Station like DZAM Commando Radio 1026? Is there a frequency like 1000 KHz in the Philippines? User:Lianlaspinas is the one responsible for doing DZAM Commando Radio 1026 & DZAR. Try fixing this problem in Wikipilipinas"[1]

Look at the 1998 census COCI-Philippines, in 1998 the station was called DZAM-AM. I see indications that the name was changed later to DZAR. I found a file written in 2000 that says "DZAR Angel Radyo, (...). Previously listed DZAM seems to have changed to DZAR last fall."[2] --Enric Naval (talk) 15:28, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Yup. I agree that this station really exists. DZAR was previously owned by Nation Broadcasting Corporation until 2005 when they sold it together with its provincial stations to Apollo Quiboloy's network. However, I believe that "Commando Radio" is another hoax station created by Lianlaspinas (a sock of User:Lpkids2006) in Wikipilipinas. If you look at the history of this article, he revised it entirely as if it is a separate radio station. And if I may add that this user has a history of creating several hoaxes here on Wikipedia (example: revising DWSM to make it look like it is owned by SM Prime Holdings, a parent company of a group of SM shopping malls in the Philippines, and his edits to the Enjoy Yourself Tonight article and revising it to make it seem that the show is produced here in the Philippines, not in Hong Kong). -danngarcia (talk) 15:52, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
