Talk:Official state car

message: :Image:Royalcarriage.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: I have removed most of the sources as the sources don't supported on what is stated in the section, I have used on source as it as a photo of the PM's car. I have also removed the bit about the former PM's since it was more about what they get and nothing to do with "official state car(s)". Bidgee (talk) 11:03, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

message: If a car is used by, say, the president of a country and is not necessarily changed on a change of leader, it is best not to give the leader's name. It adds nothing to the article ("Vlad Dracul," adds nothing to "the president of Transylvania"), and potentially goes out of date after every election. There's no point in being too dogmatic about this, as cars are also changed frequently, and we're not going to keep this article up to date. Pol098 (talk) 13:22, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
