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 ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

message: The plaudits from the wife's book are kind of a test case of distortion, in that (like those one-adjective lines used on movie posters) they omit the rest of the review, which could be simply offering an iota of praise among a cartload of opprobrium. Recommend deletion. Theonemacduff (talk) 15:37, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

message: This article has been flagged a few times since 2006 but it doesn't look like anything has been done about it. Half the assertions are without citation or from massively biased sources. The entire article needs revision or deletion.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.107.72.200 (talk) 20:31, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Seriously Needs Editing 

message: The only reference in this article points to his wife's own autobiography. The citations are all suspicious, to say the least. They give no page numbers, the book is not widely available (not at McGill University libraries for example) and does not exist in digital format. There is good reason to believe that they are misleading at best. For example, it attribute a positive reception to Malcolm Muggeridge, claiming: "The only living Englishman who could perfectly well have been either Conservative or Labour prime minister," maintained Malcolm Muggeridge. If he said this, cite him directly, not Mosley's wife. If we are to cite Mosley's wife to represent Muggeridge's exact words, at least give a page number. As far as I can tell, Muggeridge did not hold Mosley in any kind of high esteem, as indicated by this article in the New Statesman.  Dussault (talk) 04:12, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
