message: :Image:Osbk11.png 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.

;What should I do?
Don't panic; you should have time to contest the deletion (although please review deletion guidelines before doing so). The best way to contest this form of deletion is by posting on the image talk page.
* If the image is non-free then you may need to provide a fair use rationale
* If the image isn't freely licensed and there is no fair use rationale, then it cannot be uploaded or used.
* If the image has already been deleted you may want to try Deletion Review

thread_title: File:Osbk11.png Nominated for speedy Deletion

message: It wasn't the first, but it was more commercially successful than the Heathkit(4 years produced v/s 9). Also, comparing wages between soviet union and US is quite weird. In other countries any of two alternatives were several wages, or a unacceptable amount of them because monetary differences and also lower (in local and absolute term) wages(I.E. in my country, in 1980 dollar was held 50:1, but average wage was below 50 dollars). In 1985 dollar and ruble were almost 1:1, so even in dollar terms, the change would allow the electronika BK to be a little bit cheaper than heathkit. Also, it's CPU was even more commercially sucessful and wasn't a clone in any sense.
:No one said anything about "clone, knockoff or a failure".
:Here are a few widely available 16-bit or 16/32-bit machines up to the time it was released:

::TRS-80 Model 16 - 1982
::Olivetti M20 - 1982
::Apple Lisa - 1983
::Apple Macintosh - 1984
