Image:Reach-For-The-Sky.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 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. BetacommandBot 23:21, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

User:Beyond My Ken, why are you using a hidden comment for a useless function? Curb Chain ( talk) 22:31, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
PLEASE read the banner at the very top of this page. -- Alan Liefting ( talk - contribs) 23:25, 7 May 2012 (UTC) Ah! Getting deeper in the article's history reveals that you, User:Beyond My Ken, are adding white space to the articles (see here at the bottom after the last entry of ==External links== and the top of the first navigational template). Obviously this is against consensus. You have been told not to do this. Here, User:Beyond My Ken files a Sockpuppetry Investigation because multiple unrelated editors have told him to stop inserting idiosyncratic formatting. On the Sockpuppetry Investigation, an independent editor User:Viriditas says: "Many, many, many users have complained about Beyond My Ken's edits. This does not mean they are all the same users. It means, Beyond My Ken needs to stop making those edits.". Curb Chain ( talk) 23:30, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Per the discussion here to establish consensus, it is up to User:Beyond My Ken to explain why the white space should be included. I see no reason to have it included. In the previous section (==Explanation why hand-tuning Wikipedia's Style Sheet is a good Idea==) the consensus is (editors have expressed) that it should not be included. User:Beyond My Ken is the only person to add this formatting visual cue. It is changed/removed by (many) editors (eventually).
That fact that the majority of articles does not have this is consensus enough to justify not having this format. If User:Beyond My Ken proposes to add white space before the top of a navigational template and below the last entry in external links, he can do so at Wikipedia talk:MOS.

Improve pages wherever you can, and do not worry about leaving them imperfect.
Be bold in updating articles, especially for minor changes and fixing problems.
No, it doesn't. COMMENT and MOS:HEAD have nothing whatsoever to do with saying that blank space is not allowed anywhere. COMMENT is talking about making sure that invisible comments are invisible; these comments were invisible, so BMK was actually respecting WP:COMMENT in letter and spirit. There is nothing in MOS:HEAD that says that additional whitespace is forbidden; all it says is that you can add one newline without affecting the layout of the page. WP:BODY does say that additional whitespace should not be used, but it says this in a specific context: the context of adding an extra line of whitespace above a section break. You can't just apply that to all whitespace anywhere, because that's not what it says. Writ Keeper ⚇ ♔ 19:00, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
