Greetings Hammersoft,

You removed the University of Toronto's logo from the Canada Education Program's site today, citing WP:NFCC and noting that "fair use" images are not allowed to be used in the main space. All that I did was link to the image on the UofT page. Why is the image allowed in the university's article and not on our page? Jaobar (talk) 05:29, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

See item 9, restrictions on location, in the NFCC: "Non-free content is allowed only in articles (not disambiguation pages), and only in article namespace…"[emphasis added] This page is in the Wikipedia: namespace, not the main (article) namespace. That's why non-free images may not be used on it. Unfortunately, I don't think identification of the institution is a sufficient reason to grant an exemption; the text list works just fine (or better, thanks to searching and sortability of tables) in that regard. —C.Fred (talk) 05:43, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Why were the images on this page from the USPPI allowed then? Was it because they aren't logos? Jaobar (talk) 05:51, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
