Fair use rationale for Image:Wbblackfriday.jpg[edit]

Image:Wbblackfriday.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 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.

Sorrell?[edit]

Toward the end of the article, someone named "Sorrell" is referenced twice in one sentence. However, there is no identification of this person. I'm guessing that it may have originally bee part of the article but then been edited out, but this is just a guess. Could someone please identify this person? I'd be curious to know. Thanks. 76.226.14.40 17:32, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I edited the article to add a link to the "Sorrell" mentioned in the article. His name is Herb Sorrell and he was the leader of the CSU during the time of the strike. Toonmon2005 (talk) 00:32, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Title of article[edit]

Wouldn't this article be better named "Hollywood Studio Strike (1945-1946)"? - it is a bit difficult to find under the current name, and the article describes the entire strike, the build up to "Black Friday" and the aftermath. I wanted to link to a page about the strike; I've never heard the strike called "Black Friday," only the one day in October.Cleshne (talk) 05:52, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I concur---I haven't seen any published source actually calling October 5, 1945, Hollywood Black Friday. The article should be renamed to one of the established titles of the event: the Battle of Burbank or the Battle of Warner Bros. --Coolcaesar (talk) 05:50, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
