Fair use rationale for Image:S268791.jpg

Image:S268791.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 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.

Release Date

Huh? The article says the single was released in 1981, then goes on to say it was released in Australia & New Zealand in 1979. So... was it released in Europe in 1981? The USSR? Released on CD in 1981? --59.167.127.234 (talk) 15:42, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Charts Canada

I cannot find where the song made #2 in Canada, nor any ranking. [1]. The only entry is for the album 'Graffiti Crimes', which reached #87. [2] AMCKen (talk) 04:29, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen a couple of books and articles claiming that "Computer Games" was a #2 single in Canada, but I must admit I haven't been able to find a primary Canadian source to corroborate that either. Muzilon (talk) 03:01, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@AMCKen and Muzilon: I've removed the claim per AMCKen's assertion (and my having just looked now) that RPM has no evidence of the song charting in Canada. The website being used looked like a fan-compiled website of New Zealand music artist history anyway. Ss112 03:44, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
