Fair use rationale for Image:Lensbury Logo Old.jpg[edit]

Image:Lensbury Logo Old.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 04:13, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested Edits - COI[edit]

Hello there. I'm declaring a conflict of interest for this page, but would like to suggest a few edits to make it more useful to users.


My COI is this: I've been asked by The Lensbury to try to improve the accuracy of information found about them on the web and to make sure current logos and naming conventions are being used where possible. I respect the independence of Wikipedia and understand that it is not a promotional tool. There are however, a few instances where I believe some minor edits would offer the user a more accurate level of information.


CATEGORISATION

I wonder whether the categorisation of this entry could be reviewed? Whilst The Lensbury's origins are largely accurately covered here, if a user searches for The Lensbury and finds this wikipedia entry under "Energy Project" it might be confusing as it doesn't reflect The Lensbury's current role as convention centre, hotel and leisure club. It's probably most similar to the QEII Conference Centre in terms of its current function. The category applied to QEII is "Exhibition and conference centres in London". With 171 rooms The Lensbury's function is broader than just a "sports ground", and while its parent company is Shell, it's an independently run and operated accommodation and conferencing centre business, not an energy company.


INTRO

As mentioned above, the current function of The Lensbury is convention centre, hotel and leisure club. Is it possible to make this clear early on in the introduction? If a user searches on The Lensbury, they are likely to want to understand its current role and function and then maybe learn a little about its history.


Suggest something like:

The Lensbury is a conference centre, a hotel and a leisure facility located on the Thames in Teddington, South West London. The Lensbury was originally founded as a club in 1920 for Shell employees and remains a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell today.


NAMING CONVENTIONS & LOGOS

Current naming conventions are to use "The Lensbury", as opposed to "Lensbury". Is it possible to have this reflected in the text when referring to its current incarnation? I also have a copy of the current logo - I noticed there was an earlier discussion about not using an outdated logo so it appears the logo was dropped completely. Let me know if you'd like a copy of the current version.

Done (page move, categories). If you want to use the logo, upload the logo and add a Non-free use rationale template. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 07:11, 10 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
