Resolving a previous conflict about football logos, according to Wikipedia:Fair_use#Policy,

9. Fair use images should only be used in the article namespace. Used outside article space, they are often enough not covered under the fair use doctrine. They should never be used on templates (including stub templates and navigation boxes) or on user pages. They should be linked, not inlined, from talk pages when they are the topic of discussion. This is because it is the policy of the Wikimedia Foundation to allow an unfree image only if no free alternative exists and only if it significantly improves the article it is included on. All other uses, even if legal under the fair use clauses of copyright law, should be avoided to keep the use of unfree images to a minimum. Exceptions can be made on a case-by-case basis if there is a broad consensus that doing so is necessary to the goal of creating a free encyclopedia (like the templates used as part of the Main Page).

Though this is the current official policy as of May 15, 2006, it is subject to debate and it appears that many people disagree with this issue [[1]] (Item 7). Feel free to add to the discussion and maybe this rule will be overturned.


On the contrary, if you think there is a problem with my templates, read here, Section 1.1, Line 10, titled Objects Not Covered by Protection.


If you would like to give me an award or two, leave them here.
