Boredom by design
[edit]I've seen somewhere (just don't ask where...) early Cads were also designed by Alanson Brush (whose page doesn't mention it, either...). Can somebody confirm? Also, I don't see something else I've seen: Oaklands were once made in Canada... Trekphiler 16:13, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- I know this was nearly ten years ago, but both articles have been amended to include Mr. Brush. And it seems Oaklands were always manufactured in Pontiac, Michigan. --Stratocaster27t@lk 01:12, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Oaklandauto1926.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Oaklandauto1926.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 ensure 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.

Oakland not absorbed by Pontiac
[edit]Pontiac was a product of the Oakland Motor Company. When the Oakland was discontinued General Motors legally changed the name of the Oakland Motor Company to Pontiac Motor Division in January, 1932.2601:85:C001:FB9B:DC8F:1488:1DAD:58FC (talk) 04:04, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
