Fair use rationale for Image:St-Jean-sur-Richelieu symbol.gif[edit]

Image:St-Jean-sur-Richelieu symbol.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 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.

abbreviation[edit]

50 kilometres (31 mi)^* Can someone abreviate kilometres to km in this case (this template)? Peter Horn 04:09, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Villeneuve family[edit]

There seems to be various birth location of the Villeneuve F1 drivers. Gilles would have been born in St-Jean-Sur-Richlieu while he grew up in Berthierville, it is not clear where Jacques and Jacques sr. were really born. Gilles Villeneuve article states Richelieu instead of St-Jean-Sur-Richelieu as his birthplace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.144.126.111 (talk) 11:32, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

USS Enterprise[edit]

There should probably be a note somewhere in the article that this was the site of the construction, american capture, and naming of the very first ship to bear the name USS Enterprise, given how famous that particular name went on to be...Anyone has an idea where?--Guillaume Hébert-Jodoin (talk) 19:14, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: Move. Jafeluv (talk) 19:14, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec → Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu – Now I am going to try another requested move for proposal. The new title for this article is Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu. This new title is to match the Canadian city related article titles without including the province name. For example Brossard, Boucherville, Longueuil, Châteauguay, Salaberry-de-Valleyfield and Vaudreuil-Dorion have the main article titles without the province name. There's no other cities named Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu around the world. And this one of another largest cities in Quebec. Steam5 (talk) 04:59, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

History of Ste Jean[edit]

Somewhere in the the history it should mention the existence of the large Singer factory, called St John’s in Ste Jean it was there at least until 1970 and was the largest Singer operation in Canada. Singer machines with a J in their model number (221J, 301J, 500J etc) were manufactured in the St John’s factory (it was always called St John’s). 97.119.186.88 (talk) 19:58, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
