Fair use rationale for Image:R clowns.jpg

Image:R clowns.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. BetacommandBot (talk) 20:00, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 20 February 2025

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. The other two RMs mentioned here, La Strada and I Vitelloni were proposed to have lowercase titles, per an Italian convention, however editors have rejected that per WP:USEENGLISH, as English-language sources have formatted the titles in uppercase.

I clowns → The Clowns – Most of the English-language cited sources seem to refer to this film as The Clowns. I don't see a need for disambiguation, despite the fact that the suggested title leads to a disambiguation page. Using the English title would avoid the need to decide between I clowns and I Clowns for the capitalization. See also the open RMs at Talk:I Vitelloni and Talk:La Strada (and the 2022 RM at Talk:La dolce vita). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 23:48, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support as long as there is consistency among all titles of Fellini movies from the period. Otherwise move all to lowercase per Italian-style capitalization. ~ IvanScrooge98 (talk) 01:23, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I also notice that the depicted poster art has "The Clowns" on it (at the bottom, below "Federico Fellini"). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 01:26, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination and IvanScrooge98. I clowns is this film's Italian title, but it was indeed marketed, distributed and reviewed in the English-speaking world as The Clowns. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:15, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support, this being English Wikipedia. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:20, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
