Talk:The Joshua Tree Tour

Itinerary Section

The Itinerary section of this article was poorly written and contained inaccuracies. The tour did start in Tempe, Arizona, but the concerts (which were indoor at that point) were held in the Activities Center (which the article used to state before it was changed (almost to the point of vandalism) to state that they took place at Sun Devil Stadium. The concerts at SDS were the last two of the tour, and it was these shows that were filmed for inclusion in Rattle and Hum. It is also completely inappropriate for an encyclopedia entry to instruct people to "watch Rattle and Hum DVD" as proof that the inaccurate information is true. Also, what is the point of including random facts about album sales and chart positions in a section about a tour itinerary? I'm removing all of this.

Fair use rationale for Image:U2JoshuaTreeTour.jpg

Image:U2JoshuaTreeTour.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 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.

Incorrect dates for Wembley

The Wembley dates were Friday 12th June and Saturday 13th June. They are listed incorrectly as 11th and 12th. I know this as I went on the Saturday and went straight into a night shift at work. We only did those ahifts on a Saturday so I know this for a fact. I might be able to dig out a ticket stub as evidence. Should I edit this myself or should I provide more evidence than "I know because I was there"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.196.174.58 (talk) 06:29, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
