Fair use rationale for Image:Sound of white album.jpg

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Image:Sound of white album.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 08:42, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

Is it well written?
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
In the Background and recording section, "...she flew to LA to sign an international recording contract with Warner Bros.", it might be best to spell out "Los Angeles", or do this ---> "Los Angeles (LA)".
Done
Check.

B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
Reference 50 is missing an accessdate, and there's a dead link.
Check.

B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):

C. It contains no original research:

D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
Is it broad in its coverage?
A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
Is it neutral?
It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
Is it stable?
It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
Not that much to do. If the above query can be dealt with, I will pass the article. Good luck!

Thanks for the review and for fixing the nom - I keep forgetting that step! Just to clarify: with the mention of LA, it is spelled out already in that sentence. Do you want me to add (LA) to that first instance of the same sentence?
- You're welcome for the GAN tag, just assuming good faith with it, and Nascar1996 got the LA bit. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 18:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
Not sure which ref you mean that needs an access date - there's no no. 50.
- That's weird, here it says number 50. I just looked in the article and it's Ref. 22.
  - Ah ok. That's a book and the link is just a courtesy link so doesn't need an accessdate.--Beloved Freak 18:45, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
The dead link is a courtesy link to an offline source, but I've commented it out for now. I was kind of hoping it would come back online. --BelovedFreak 17:51, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
- Check.

Thank you to both Nascar and Belovedfreak for getting the stuff I left at the talk page, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 18:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
