Hours of Opperation

Would it be appropriate to include the hours of operation?Kaw in stl 22:52, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

No, it would not be appropriate. It is neither encyclopedic in value or notable information. Luke! 23:08, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Moa logo.gif

Image:Moa logo.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.

Image gallery

The existing gallery is just an indiscriminate collection of images of the article subject. Galleries are not prohibited on Wikipedia, but galleries consisting of random collections of images are (see WP:IG). Any ideas for improving the gallery, in order to be consistent with the policy, or should it simply be moved to the Commons? --Skeezix1000 (talk) 12:21, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I added the {{cleanup-gallery}} tag. The gallery remains a mess. If we don't figure out how to improve it, the whole thing should just be moved to Commons. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 16:27, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

I removed some duplicate images and added some extra information. The gallery could still use some work. DGERobertson (talk) 03:14, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

It's better (thanks for that), but it's still just an indiscriminate collection of images, with little focus or theme (the notion of "collections" is an okay one, if a bit broad, but here the implementation is poor -- just random shots). Maybe the better solution is to create a list (there practically is one already in the article), with one image depicting each aspect of the collection. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 19:08, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
