I uploaded 2 images for the [[password]] article. I'd assumed they were covered by fair use, but now I'm not so sure. The images are "Password_game.jpg" and "Password gameshow.jpg". Are these kosher? What's a good rule of thumb? (Bear in mind that I'm new, good-hearted, and a little lazy. And there are probably lots of users that fit in this category.)

: The article is [[Password game]], btw.  I'm guessing that they are [[Fair use]] (assuming you're in the US).  Wikipedia's policy is here: [[Wikipedia:Fair use]] -- [[User:Finlay McWalter|Finlay McWalter]] | [[User talk:Finlay McWalter | Talk]] 01:34, 18 Apr 2004 (UTC)

:: On reading that page (particularly the "no one person may decide" part) it looks like you should post both images there, in the context of the article in which they're used.  Folks more knowledgeable than I can then consider what's appropriate. -- [[User:Finlay McWalter|Finlay McWalter]] | [[User talk:Finlay McWalter | Talk]] 01:37, 18 Apr 2004 (UTC)
