message: I have included this text on the template, because deletionists are starting to delete Scout images that have the  template, saying we need a separate fair use rationale.
==Fair use rationale==
*This is the national emblem for the article in question, where no free image can be made, this is a direct image illustrating the badge itself.
*Its use here is entirely encyclopedic in nature. 
*This does not in any way limit the ability of the copyright owners to market or sell their product, being a low resolution image.

replies: text: further editorial The tagging of images with  is accepted and standard practice of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Scouting and should not have to be rejustified on each image. The images are being used to illustrate the proper topics. Chris 07:39, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Good idea, but not all of them are national emblems.Rlevse 10:28, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Good point, if we come across an image that's FU, try to customize the rationale. The image people have strong wiki support because it keeps wiki from being sued like Youtube is right now. BigDT is our best person to ask for image questions. Rlevse 10:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep, the betacommandbot doesn't pick up the FU rationale from the template, so I've dropped one on a few of our images so it'll notice them, such as :Image:Metal engr.png; this makes two FU lines, but oh well.Rlevse 22:32, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Agreed, if the same reasons apply, just copy from one image to another. Someone will eventually figure out it's in a template and ping us for it. Yes, it's a pain to do them all one by one, but it's easier than fighting off the FU deletionists.Rlevse 01:21, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I suggest to to make a modification to the template, for defunct Scouting insignia-those being worked on at Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/Images to improve are between 20 and 45 years out of use, so they may actually not have copyright holders any longer. Chris 19:10, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

message: a bot, that doesn't think, retagged our scoutlogo template with "non-free logo", when I get a chance, I'll rename the template "non-free scoutlogo" and fix this mess. There is now a wiki policy that non-free templates have to have "non-free" in the front of the name.Rlevse 11:44, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
