'''[[:Image:Mercury (programming language) logo.jpg]]''' is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is no [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline|explanation or rationale]] as to why its use in '''this''' Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|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 [[WP:FU|fair use]].
 
Please go to [[:Image:Mercury (programming language) logo.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]]. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Missing rationale2 -->

The way this article reads it's like someone wrote a puff piece for Mercury and someone else wrote margin notes with arrows pointing to circled text defensively saying "BUT PROLOG CAN DO THIS TOO!". This makes Wikipedia look like its editors belong on the short bus. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/66.249.20.178|66.249.20.178]] ([[User talk:66.249.20.178|talk]]) 07:39, 31 December 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
: Um, no, it really doesn't seem that way at all. I think you are projecting a little. How is that short bus treating you? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/86.141.142.230|86.141.142.230]] ([[User talk:86.141.142.230|talk]]) 20:30, 24 April 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:: Looks OK to me. The language is a descendant of Prolog, it's unsuprising that it mentions it, and I'm not seeing 'but prolog can do this too'. Maybe this comment's out of date. [[User:Anniepoo|Anniepoo]] ([[User talk:Anniepoo|talk]]) 00:00, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
