message: :Image:Time-magazine-cover-harold-brown.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 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.

message: While Secretary of Defense, he insisted in laying the groundwork for the Camp David accords. 
Does this mean he insisted on laying the groundwork, or that he assisted in laying the groundwork? KConWiki (talk) 05:55, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

message: Would an interview with transcript with Harold Brown from 1986 be useful here as an external link? Focus of conversation is nuclear weapons policy. http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_CF179614E1CD43A292F04877A2DC1189 and http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_7C627EF675ED4300AD2DA8A705BE1F42 (I have a conflict of interest; otherwise I would add it myself.)

message: It appears that the entire section on his term as defense secretary was a carbon copy of the defense.gov biography. It's a government website, so (as specified here) this isn't a copyvio. But it's certainly not ideal. In my edit I've kept it as-is but added more citations among the recent obituaries; perhaps someone with more knowledge on this subject can decide which parts are important and how to rephrase them.
