Fair use rationale for Image:Celebrate!1980.jpg

Image:Celebrate!1980.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 05:28, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

References for assertion about use during return of U.S. hostages from Iran

There is a citation needed tag on this statement: "The song is notable for having been played when the remaining American hostages returned home following the 1979-1981 Iran hostage crisis.[citation needed]". Here are some sources:

Fair use of notable cover version single cover

Since the image, File:Celebration Kylie Minogue.jpg, has removed by one editor citing WP:NFCC and reverted by two other editors also citing WP:NFCC, I am starting a discussion here so that the image is not deleted simply for being orphaned.

The single cover for the Kylie Minogue cover versiones pass the points of WP:NFCC. WP:NFCC#3 is met because the single covers is used for identification its respective versions and the Kool & the Gang single cover cannot convey equivalent significant information and/or identification of Kylie Minogue's versions. WP:NFCC#8 is met because the single cover is used for identification and the image increases readers' understanding and not having it would be detrimental to the understanding of Kylie Minogue's version. The single cover passes the first example of acceptable use of fair images at WP:NFCI: "Cover art: Cover art from various items, for visual identification only in the context of critical commentary of that item (not for identification without critical commentary)."

The current consensus for single covers in section infoboxes to represent notable cover versions are that they pass WP:NFCC and WP:NFCI. Since WP:SONGCOVER says notable cover versions should be covered in the article about the song and not have its own article, but if it had their own articles, the image would be acceptable there, so it is acceptable in the sections of the song article. The single cover is not alternate covers for the Kool & the Gang cover, it is the primary cover for Kylie Minogue's version and should be treated as such. If it is felt that the image should still be removed than the image should be taken to Wikipedia:Files for deletion instead of simply removed from the article.

KEEP: Its a notable cover version of a well-known popstar. And the cover version has a couple of sub-sections. So it deserves a single art cover just like the original version.--SuperHotWiki (talk) 00:18, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
