Talk:Francis Ona

A man of the people

Just saw the documentary "Coconut Revolution", I highly recommend it. In the film, Ona certainly seems to be a man of the people, rather than some kind of megalomaniac declaring himself to be king.Brallan 14:53, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Francis Ona.gif

Image:Francis Ona.gif 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Tags

This article had had tags on it for several years claiming that it read like an editorial piece and that some sources may not be reliable, which if they ever applied don't appear to apply to the current article, so I removed them. I've re-added two tags that do: a need for inline citations and a NPOV tag because it conflates Ona personally with the secessionist side of the civil war and talks about the peace process generally, doesn't explain why he was increasingly sidelined in the peace process over time, and overstates his military success and personal influence in later years.
