This page needs some references and some clean up to make it more NPOV. Kbomb 16:24, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Paulcarlson.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 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.

I strongly feel that the subject of this article easily meets Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. The events involved in the subject's death are mentioned in other Wikipedia entries relating to the history of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. What is needed are more references & external links. They are out there! Recommended sources include (but are not restricted to) LIFE & TIME (Dr. Carlson was on each magazine's cover subsequent to his death; see External links) and The New York Times (not as external links, though; they charge fees for the online version of articles from the 1960s).

I concur, Dr. Carlson is an historical figure. -- Cdw ♥'s ♪ ♫(talk) 17:11, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
