Fraternity Vacation is a movie from 1985 about a nerd who gets befriended from two of his frat brothers as his father offers them a condo during their vacation in Palm Springs.

The most memorable part of the movie occurs early on with Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont.

I added the fact about Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont into the main article plus the following "in a classic nude scene as they each take each other's bikinis off. The scene is most often talked about and most often viewed especially by fans of Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont." I dón't know if there is any suitable citation that I can add here to justify the latter sentence but if one does searches on the Internet of "Barbara Crampton, Kathleen Kinmont, Fraternity Vacation" you would find that it is undoubtedly true. I very much doubt that anyone would even be aware of Fraternity Vacation's existence if it weren't for the Barbara-Kathleen scene. --The Shadow Treasurer (talk) 06:04, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Fraternity vacation (DVD cover).jpg

Image:Fraternity vacation (DVD cover).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 Wikipedia articles 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 08:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Classic nude scene"

Variants of the following line keep getting inserted and removed from this article:

'The film is notable for a classic nude scene featuring Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont.'

I've removed it again, but brought it here per WP:BRD. I don't doubt there is a "nude scene" in this movie, but if we are going to claim that this is notable (compared for example to every nude scene in every other film) we need this to be supported by a reliable source which explains why the scene meets the notability criteria. Without a source, the sentence above (or variants on it) are just a personal opinion and cannot be included in the article.

If there's disagreement with this removal, let's discuss it here and obtain a consensus rather than continuing the slow-moving edit-war of adding and deleting it from the article. Euryalus (talk) 01:14, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That scene is only remarkable aspect of the film and therefore it should be included and what I definitely do not like is the tampering and abuse that I have received from Hullaballoo Wolfowitz and I request that he would be removed as an editor on Wikipedia.
