Fair use rationale for Image:Alain Le Roux small.jpg

Image:Alain Le Roux small.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.

Inflation

I have removed the following from the article

In 2007, it was estimated that this was equivalent to £81 billion.[1]

As discussed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Kenilworth Castle there are major problems with converting historic sums to modern values, especially those over 900 years old. For instance the MeasuringWorth website only goes as far back as 1245. Nev1 (talk) 14:44, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The original Times article can be found here. It reports the findings of Philip Beresford and William Rubinstein in compiling The Richest of the Rich: The Wealthiest 250 People in Britain Since 1066. Nev1 (talk) 14:57, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
