Comments unrelated to VfD[edit]

The article says it was organized in 1951 by the voters residing in the ninety square mile area of New Lenox Township, Illinois. However, there are a few problems with this.

  1. New Lenox Township is currently a piped link to the village of New Lenox, Illinois and the two are not the same. Wikipedia does not currently have articles on townships in Illinois.
  2. New Lenox Township is not ninety square miles--it is a more or less standard survey township of about 36 square miles. The school district area also includes all (or most) of Frankfort Township to the east and a large portion of Manhattan Township to the south and a tiny portion of Jackson Township on the southwest.
  3. The article says The absence of a high school created a considerable inconvenience for the four communities, but does not clearly say what those four communities are. The district web site confusingly contains the same sentence (copyvio anyone?) but also says the district serves FIVE communities: Frankfort, Manhattan, Mokena, New Lenox, & Tinley Park--and the district map shows it also includes a small portion of Orland Park. I'm guessing that the sentence refers to Frankfort, Manhattan, Mokena, New Lenox since those four communities are entirely included in the district, while only portions of Tinley Park and Orland Park are in the district.

Finally, considering that most of this appears to be copied verbatim from the district web site [2], if the article survives VfD it should be listed on Copyright problems unless it is completely rewritten (and don't assume that everything on the District web site is necessarily 100% accurate in every detail either). olderwiser 13:29, Dec 31, 2004 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Griffin.gif[edit]

Image:Griffin.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 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 07:47, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
