message: :Image:Port Vale FC.gif 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.

replies: text: Agreed, someone who knows it write about it, will probably mean having to have a seperate article for the history then which is fair enough.--EchetusXe (talk) 00:02, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  History 

message: I -tagged the article after reading the following:
*These next two seasons, Vale fans were to witness some of the best football the club has ever played, and even had fans dreaming of the Premiership in the second half of the 1996/97 campaign.
*The replay was to prove a night to remember, Vale Park was full to capacity, to see Guppy and McCarthy produce a masterclass in wing play.
*The game finished 0-0, in a tie where The Valiants were arguably the better side, and should have won.
I can see there's more to come, so the tag should remain until I finish the copyedit. - Dudesleeper /  Talk 20:34, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

message: The image :File:Freddie steele stokefootballer.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here.  In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page.  Please check
:* That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
:* That this article is linked to from the image description page.
The following images also have this problem:

replies: text: Whatever they said to use it on the Stoke City article, we say the same but with the words 'Stoke City' replaced with the words 'Port Vale', thank you. They are low quality images of deceased people of no commercial value with no free alternatives. --EchetusXe (talk) 17:41, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

message: If anyone is interested I would love to create a good Potteries derby article. We could have the Stoke City season-by-season graph, create a Port Vale one and put them together onto one graph. Write various stats, players who played for both sides, table of results etc.

message: The section regarding Port Vale Reserves contains an inaccuracy or at least an ambiguity: the team was definitely NOT in the Cheshire County League between 1963-64 season and the formation of the Northern Premier League in 1968-69.  I watched the Chesire League regularly in those days and whislt there were a number of Reserve sides from the Football League (Chester, Wrexham, Tranmere, Crewe), Port Vale were not one of them212.167.5.6 (talk) 16:26, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
