Image:FilaLogo.png 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 Wikipedia articles 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 07:20, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and erased the following line, as it seemed NPOV: "With a refreshed management team in the United States, Fila is poised for a comeback."

If somebody would like to reword this and add citations, feel free.

I'm wondering why the list is said to describe athletes using fila, but also includes Paris Hilton? As far as my knowledge goes she's no athlete (i'll not add my personal view about her here..) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.24.153.178 (talk) 22:22, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

===She is a gold medal winner in the bedroom trampoline category.

This article should have the logo. It could probably be used using the same Fair Use rationale as the Adidas logo.-M.Nelson (talk) 03:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have no problem with sports companies not having a Sponsorships section on Wikipedia, but I'd like some definition. The way I've seen these articles grow, there's mention of endorsement from someone notable, more sponsorships are mentioned in prose, the prose becomes bloated so is turned into a list, and the list might spinoff onto its own page. Some of those lists are better formatted and sourced than others, but they're all guilty of WP:NOPROMO, because mention of any sponsorship is kind of by definition a promotion. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 06:57, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I restored the list so that is proper sourced, and Wikipedia has a large amount of articles specifically referred to the topic, as they are included on Category:Sports sponsorships. Fma12 (talk) 10:09, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware of that category, thanks. Some of those lists can be exhausting; do you go for every sponsorship ever, only current ones, or maybe pick the brand's biggest sport and just cover that? I guess it's case-by-case. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 12:45, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The founding of this brand is unclear, based on online sources I could find. This cultural site mentioning the Fila Foundation Museum says "three Fila brothers, coming from the world of carpentry, joined the Giuseppe Regis and Figli di Coggiola wool mill" in 1906. In 1911 the Regis brothers withdraw from the company and the wool mill takes the name of Fratelli Fila Spa. Then "Maglificio Biellese" gets involved in 1923, and the company is officially established. What year, if any, gets mentioned in the lead? 70.163.208.142 (talk) 07:55, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
