Fair use rationale for Image:Stampcom.JPG

Image:Stampcom.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 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 07:37, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Removed text

I removed the following:

The likely impact of electronic stamps is reflected in the tenacity with which Pitney Bowes corporation, which dominates the worldwide franking and mailing machine industry, pursued legal suits claiming infringement of patents almost from the day of the E-Stamp launch.

While this may well be true, it's highly POV and needs a citation. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 15:13, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Stamps.com → AuctaneAuctane – Auctane is now the legal name of the company. ANDROS¹³³⁷_TALK 17:07, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

• Oppose The WP:COMMONNAME remains Stamps.com. I have never heard of "Auctane". -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:49, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

  WP:IDONTKNOWIT. Stamps.com is one of many arguably commonly-known brands of Auctane, including ShipStation, Endicia, etc. --Ahecht (TALK

  Auctane apparently has several "products", one of which is Stamps.com. One of Auctane's other products, ShipWorks, has its own article (note the COI concerns have been raised about this article), the others do not. This article primarily discusses Stamps.com's history and products/services, not the activities of the current company or former subsidiaries of Stamps.com that are now unified under the Auctane name. "Auctane" has a mere 70 hits on Google News. Sources appear to make a distinction between Auctane and Stamps.com, for example Business Wire here and here and Supply Chain Dive. Many others only discuss Stamps.com, especially when discussing data or services provided specifically by this product; for example, a local news station, Teen Vogue, and this e-commerce news site. Also, Stamps.com is still the website for this product. --MYCETEAE 🍄‍🟫—talk 17:50, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

• Oppose per my reply above. This article is about the current product Stamps.com and the company's history before its name change. Few sources discuss Auctane and it's not clearly notable beyond its Stamps.com product, so Auctane should continue to redirect here.--MYCETEAE 🍄‍🟫—talk 14:59, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

• Oppose - Per above comments, stamps.com is a far more commonly referenced than Actuane. It's not clear that the company, Actuane, would be notable. Garsh (talk) 23:20, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
