Movie

[edit]

What about the James Spader movie "Dream Lover" ?

Fair use rationale for Image:Mariahcareysingle dreamlover.jpg

[edit]

Image:Mariahcareysingle dreamlover.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 ensure 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.

OVERALL REVIEW

After reviewing this article thoroughly, I have decided to put the article on hold at this time. There are many spots where there are specific facts without cited references. Also, there a few minor mistakes affecting the prose quality of this article. I will give you the general seven days to fix these mistakes and/or debate the ones you believe do not affect GA status. - Rp0211 (talk2me) 18:18, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for not replying sooner. I didn't see your comments on my watchlist, so I didn't know you responded on my talk page. Anyway, since all issues have been addressed, I feel confident to put this article in good article status. Congratulations and keep up the good work you do. - Rp0211 (talk2me) 01:35, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Has there ever been a notion on the keyboard riff, which is presented in the intro and goes through the song, resembles quite a lot the intro of The Shadows' instrumental piece Wonderful Land ? Noseball (talk) 09:23, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Dreamlover (song). Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).
