Fair use rationale for Image:18 Wheeler Year Zero.jpg

Image:18 Wheeler Year Zero.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.

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.Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 00:24, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Influences???

"...many critics felt they were too similar to their influences, but some others saw the range of these influences as potentially a good thing."

But what were these influences? The Beatles? Perry Como? Birdsong? Tsuguya (talk) 04:55, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Mindless sentences

I removed one completely nonsense paragraph from the article. The facts presented were alright, but the sentence absolutely doesn't make any sense at all. I am sorry lad, I would have corrected it myself if I just knew what you were after. A quote:

"The band were once introduced by Tony Blair at the 1996 Labour Party Conference. The future Prime Minister managed to wrongly introduce them as "Wheeler 18". Their biggest claim to fame, however, is that they were the band Oasis were supporting the night that Oasis were discovered by Creation Records boss Alan McGee at King Tuts Wah Wah Hut in Glasgow on 31 May 1993. The Oasis setlist on the night was: Rock'n'Roll Star; Bring it on down; Up in the Sky; I am the Walrus.

There are three sentences. If the middle one is completely absurd, also the following is (since it isn't pertaining to anywhere). Hence we'd have only one sentence left, which is obviously too little for a paragraph. Therefore I removed the whole paragraph until someone makes sense to the middle sentence there. Thanks.

I'm not sure what part of the three sentences you don't understand. They all make sense to me. I've re-added the first two and left out the last, because it seems irrelevant. I've also added a cite and linked King Tut's. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 21:36, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
