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.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Moos-Stanford.JPG

message: ...is what I've attempted to remove, but have been reverted . It's fluff, and apparently relies solely on a primary source. 99.136.252.252 (talk) 22:47, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: If  you had actually took the time to read it you would see that it is an update on her career, a perfectly legitimate piece of content. If it is her official website then it is a reliable source. Don't go running to a noticeboard just because an editor disagrees with you. -- MisterShiney ✉  22:57, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: No, most, if not all of it, doesn't belong. A subject's website is almost never a reliable source. This constitutes such a clear misinterpretation of Wiki policy that 'running to a noticeboard' is appropriate. 99.136.252.252 (talk) 23:05, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: 99.136 is correct. This section is written in a promotional tone and sourced to the subject's own web site, which is not acceptable at all. Unless it can be found in reliable sources and written in a more neutral manner, it should go. Rklear (talk) 23:37, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

text: I'm with Rklear and 99.136.252.252 on this. Stuartyeates (talk) 00:10, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Count me with 99.136, Reklear and Stuartyeates on this. Language like "works with elite athletes", "change people's lives", "she really enjoys children" and "ACE Certified Nutrition Consultant" is clearly promotional puffery, especially when sourced to her own website. The website is OK for basic biographical details, but not for a single thing that can be construed as promotional. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 00:58, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I've deleted that section and trimmed down some others as well.  Nomoskedasticity (talk) 04:13, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

text: It's a press release. Several accounts have concurred that it's inappropriate content for an encyclopedic article. If any of the information can be corroborated by objective sources then it may be relevant. Otherwise edit warring, and the reversion here as well  constitute a questionable insistence on including promotional and non-notable content. 99.136.252.252 (talk) 12:00, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

text: I've templated the article as a press release. 99.136.252.252 (talk) 12:04, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: What do my reversions on other pages have to do with this page? Yeah nothing, especially when it is a non biographical article. So stop spouting that tosh. I see an IP editor reverting content without a justified explanation, I revert it. What is a Press Release? The Article? Then AFD it. I hate editors who whine about articles and don't do anything about it and instead delete content someone has spent time and effort putting in. Especially IP editors who don't even have enough commitment to get an account. -- MisterShiney ✉  12:25, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Reasonable explanations were provided. There was no 'whining' or 'spouting' from this account--I was bold in removing fluff, and have been reverted, against growing consensus, without a substantial rationale. As for an animosity toward IPs, that's grist for another discussion, and it may come to that. Several admins are aware of my background as a registered and unregistered account, and of my offline work as a writer. 99.136.252.252 (talk) 13:12, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Poorly sourced and promotional section 

message: Quite apart from the issues in the section above, I question whether the lead sentence should talk about her being a "model, personal trainer, nutrition consultant". Her notability is rooted in her basketball career, and that really should be the focus of the lede. 99.136.252.252 has added the trainer/consultant part (with sourcing) in the second paragraph, and that seems to me to be the right place to mention that. Rklear (talk) 16:48, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, and even hesitated as to whether the trainer/consultant information belongs in the lede, given that is of relatively minor note. Support the paring of the first sentence, and have no problem with moving the piece I added. 99.136.252.252 (talk) 16:56, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
