Talk:Little Brown Jug (college football trophy)

message: If you search for Little Brown Jug, you get sent to an article about a harness race. I think the football trophy (the grandfather of all rivalry trophies) should be the primary link, or at least lead to a disambiguation page.--RLent 19:24, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:Michigan BlockM.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 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.BetacommandBot 21:47, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:MichiganWolverines.png

message: In the article, and in the University of Minnesota media guide, the jug is listed as "earthenware", and may actually be a a piece of "stoneware" crockery from Red Wing Pottery. Anyone have access to the Red Wing Collector's Society article on the Little Brown Jug? This might explain why it has held up for more than 100 years without any recorded breakings.

message: Something on the jug's theft from Michigan's campus in I believe the 1940s and subsequent return and identification by a flaw would be nice.
Re: "the theft", Here's a good place to start. It has a blow by blow of what happened between 1931 and 1933 when the jug was missing Gregdooley (talk) 22:49, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
