Fair use rationale for Image:Colosseum ThoseAboutToDieSaluteYou.jpg edit

 

Image:Colosseum ThoseAboutToDieSaluteYou.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 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 22:11, 2 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sources tag edit

I have deleted the tag requesting the citation of sources at this article. Please take the time to read WP:CITE, which defines when to cite sources. These are required for "all material that is challenged or likely to be challenged". This article contains only basic information about the album and its tracklisting, which have obviously been taken from the album itself. Unless you would like to challenge the accuracy of this basic material, there is currently no requirement to cite sources for this article. Grimhim (talk) 03:35, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Challenging what? Grimhim (talk) 06:25, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Okay, for example, the article has the cryptic line "In this version of Valentyne Suite "Grass is Greener" was lifted out and replaced by a remade version of "Beware the Ides Of March." What does that mean? I'll bet if you found a source, this could be cleared up. Blast Ulna (talk) 07:10, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
I agree, it's poorly written. I don't know what it means. But it needs to be rewritten, or simply deleted. Demanding sources and citations for the entire article won't help. Grimhim (talk) 07:19, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Where do I stop deleting? Without any sources, I can delete every word. Blast Ulna (talk) 07:23, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Why would you want to delete every word? What else do you want to delete? The article simply contains information. If you don't like what it's in it – tracklisting, release date, personnel, all of which (common sense dictates) came from the album cover – don't look at it. Grimhim (talk) 07:32, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
The point of an encyclopedia is to provide information to the readers. They (and I) don't have the album. Without a reliable source, we can't even be sure this article isn't an elaborate hoax. And I have pointed out that there is a certified discrepancy with the track listing. Q: How could this be resolved? A: With a source. Blast Ulna (talk) 07:45, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
may i refer you to WP:SOFIXIT? tomasz. 11:48, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
I tried to find a source to clear up that sentence, and failed. Sorry. Blast Ulna (talk) 08:20, 14 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Yes, cite "all material that is challenged or likely to be challenged". While you may disagree with Blast Ulna, the edits ze made challenge the material. If the information has "obviously been taken from the album itself", cite the album itself. While it is a primary source (so appropriate cautions apply), it is a reliable source for basic, factual information. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 13:14, 26 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Beware the Ides of March" edit

From the article: "Beware the Ides of March" borrows a theme of the fugue of "Toccata and Fugue in D minor" by Johann Sebastian Bach (Bach BWV 565).

My comment: the intro however, borrows from BWV 1068 ("Air") Regards K.-H. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.217.172.148 (talk) 09:58, 27 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
