Has anyone ever thought what a strange answer Gerhard has to give when people ask him what he does for a living? 'Yeah, I draw the backgrounds for a black and white comic about a talking aardvark. Oscar Wilde was in it, and once the aardvark became Pope. No, the pay's not bad.'

My question is, how does he pronounce his name? Willbyr (talk | contribs) 16:29, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gir-hard. with the emphasis on "hard". Margaret 22:39, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm assuming that's a short i, like in gift. Thanks! Willbyr (talk | contribs) 23:42, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Better yet, What's his real name? We're talking about Edmonton, Canada right? All it says is Gerhard and Edmonton, no name no country/region.

Fair use rationale for Image:Cerebus 110 23 bc.jpg[edit]

Image:Cerebus 110 23 bc.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 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.

The picture was taken by Gerhard's wife, Rose. I've asked them if it is okay to use it. I'll update the picture once I hear back from them. Margaret 01:30, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
