I've listed this article for peer review because…I would like to bring this article to featured article status. I have worked on this article for over a year and it since has been copy-edited by three different GOCE members.

Don't use contractions outside of direct quotes
Who holds copyright to the engraving on the gravestone? Or the Selena memorial?
Are saying that the engravings on the gravestone and the memorial must be attributed to its owner, and not the person who actually took the photos?
Both. In the US, freedom of panorama does not cover sculptures, so we need to account for both the copyright of the photographer and the creator of the original work. Nikkimaria (talk) 19:53, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done. I have added Seaside Memorial Cemetery as the owner and original sculptures of the grave site and H.W. Tatum sculpted the statue and is owned by the Corpus Christi Convention & Visitors Bureau. Best, jona ^(talk) 12:57, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, that's a good start, but what is the copyright status of the works? Nikkimaria (talk) 14:57, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well since these are in the US and were erected in the mid and late 1990s, I guess they should be placed with a not-free-US-FOP template? jona ^(talk) 15:08, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(edit) There is currently a discussion about deleting the statue pictures. So should I just remove them here anyways? jona ^(talk) 15:13, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Your options are (a) find a reason why one or both of the statue and engraving are in the public domain or freely licensed; (b) move one or both to Wikipedia and claim fair use; or (c) remove the images. Nikkimaria (talk) 16:47, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
They are not freely licensed and were taken by those who uploaded them, there is already a non-free image in the article, and I have removed the statue and grave site photos from the article. Is the prose up to standards btw? Thanks, jona ^(talk) 17:05, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Did the fan club have a name?
No, just the "Selena fan club". jona ^(talk) 18:39, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Bullet caption needs a citation

Fair-use rationale for screenshot could be more expansive

Since Rossler massacre is currently a redlink, could we briefly summarize here?
Make sure your citations are consistently formatted. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:37, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comments! I have successfully completed the issues you have pointed out, except for the quotations which I will work on as well as the Rossler massacre (since I never heard of this event), and re-format the citations. Thanks, jona ^(talk) 18:39, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
