message: :Image:Rhonamartin.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.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Rhonamartin.jpg

message: She's an "avid" fan of Rangers FC? Hardly worth mentioning, and it's completely unsourced. Unless we can add a good bit more information about her private life (and I seriously doubt it can be done, or should be done) I propose deleting the section.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.129.69.78 (talk) 17:36, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

message: This article needs moving and editing. She has reverted back to her maiden name of Rhona Howie, after her divorce. http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/curling-gb-golden-girl-rhona-martin-back-new-114859725--spt.html  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.139.104.170 (talk) 13:35, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I do not think this is necessary. From what I understand, the most common name should be used (see here). 131.111.185.66 (talk) 15:03, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Usually when an active curler changes their name, we go ahead and move the article. I'm not sure if Rhona is active enough these days to warrant an article move. -- Earl Andrew - talk 15:40, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Looking at just the BBC website, it does not look as if they are using Howie, even though she has been featured by them extensively in the past couple of weeks. Doing a search on the BBC Sport website, there is only one hit (28 August 2013) for Howie, but seventeen since this for Martin. One might be able to argue that Martin is problematic, but I am not sure how successful that will be. 131.111.185.66 (talk) 19:05, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: Rhona Martin →  – A quick Gnews search of Rhona Martin v Rhona Howie favours Howie, with Martin in most cases being used in a historical context (such as her 2002 Olympic medal win) or as a mention about it being her former name (BBC article. She has also stated that she uses Rhona Martin specifically for coverage about her at the time Scotsman article CiphriusKane (talk) 05:59, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

text: Oppose. "Rhona Martin" gets far more Google hits. She was more successful under her previous name, as that's when she won her gold medal, so that's the name her article should be under.-- Earl Andrew - talk 20:02, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
