Fair use rationale for Image:Suite XVI.jpg

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.

US chart postions

I found a (probably incomplete) list of US chart positions for their singles here. It might be missing some singles that charted in the 70s and early 80s. Also, it seems "Skin Deep" charted in the States a year after it did in the UK. Perhaps if this info is worth adding someone with more experience with singles charts could iron that out.

Article name

It's called Stranglers discography, but the band article is named The Stranglers. Not sure if it's ok. --Chaosu¹ (talk) 02:25, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

First release of Grip

I bought their first single (Get a) grip (on yourself) in the UK when it was first released, and it was paired with London Lady not Peaches. Pemboid (talk) 20:03, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Celia and The Mutations

This is from my very dodgy memory of those days, but I am certain that the above were The Stranglers with a guest female singer. I do not know about the BBC charts, but I remember this being in the independent charts of the time (1978/79). Anyone? Anyone? LessHeard vanU (talk) 17:26, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

There's a bit of background information on the back cover of this record and there's some more info on p.94 of this book. Kind regards, Grueslayer 12:25, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

@LessHeard vanU You are right. Celia and The Mutations redirects to this page, but there is no mention of them on the page. One single was released on UA, A side was Mony Mony, B side was Mean To Me. The cover included a silhouette of a band who were clearly The Stranglers. I don't believe it troubled the charts. Ringbark (talk) 20:23, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. You seem to know a bit about the record - I was wondering if it was featured in any of the independent / music paper (New Musical Express, especially) charts? Do you have any sources for this? LessHeard vanU (talk) 16:21, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
