Connection to Nine to Five organization

[edit]

The introduction claims that the song and the film get their name from an organization dedicated to advancing the status of women in the workplace, founded in 1973. The organization clearly predates the film and song by 7 years, but more than merely this is needed to establish a connection. The article on the film is silent on the subject, as is the IMDB page. If there is a connection, someone surely mentioned it in an interview at some point. --Basil Fritts (talk) 21:21, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This Rolling Stone article from 2015 mentions the connection. Is that enough for a reference? http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/9-to-5-turns-35-and-its-still-radical-today-20151218 "Jane Fonda, who was inspired by the work of Karen Nussbaum, an old friend from the anti-war movement and founder of 9to5, an organization still in the business of advocating for working women." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.199.2.149 (talk) 20:28, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:9to5sleeve.jpg

[edit]

Image:9to5sleeve.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.

"Nails by Dolly"

[edit]

I have asked for page protection because of a lot of vandalizing edits by IPs from different ranges and by a couple of new accounts. A number of edits, however, are about adding "nails" to Dolly Parton in the "Personnel" section. The fact that the typewriter sound in the song was made by Dolly Parton clacking her nails is mentioned in the article. And Emily Kirkpatrick's 2020 Vanity Fair article "Dolly Parton Explains Why Her Acrylic Nails Are Credited as a Musical Instrument on Her Album" quotes her: "So I have a credit on the back of the album that says, 'nails by Dolly'".

Do we have consensus to add the instrument "nails" to "lead vocals, guitars" among Dolly Parton's credits in the "Personnel" section? ---Sluzzelin talk 13:12, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Since "nails" are included in the article's current version, I've added the source. If consensus goes the other way, we'll just remove that bit, but it's always better to include sources, thanks! ---Sluzzelin talk 13:46, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment - Good shout, I can't see why consensus would be against this, if it's a legit credit on the album and its sourced I see no reason why it shouldn't be in the article! On a side note, I assume the recent spate of vandalism is to do with a TikTok video posted a day or two ago which showed the WP page having Dolly credited with 'Nails', it seems to have quietened down now!

    Aha, thank you for solving yesterday evening's mystery for me! Indeed, it's calmed down, and I've removed my request for page protection. ---Sluzzelin talk 16:22, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
