Fair use rationale for Image:Comp01.jpg

[edit]

Image:Comp01.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 21:57, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

[edit]

Background

[edit]
  • Selena's first performance at the Houston Astrodome in February 1993, attracted over 60,000 attendees, breaking the maritime record.
    • The first comma is unnecessary.
    • Maritime record? At sea? The word here doesn't match the meaning.
  • the most popular Tejano music musician can we just say "Tejano musician"?

Music

[edit]
  • It commences with "Como la Flor" (1992), a commercially and critically acclaimed piece widely regarded as Selena's signature song and her "trademark", "Como la Flor" has become a posthumous epithet and swan song, as well as her most renowned recording. This sentence should be split after (1992).
  • The second track, "Mentiras" (1989) is taken Complete the appositive by adding a comma after "(1989)".
  • These are followed by, Selena's "Tengo Ganas de Llorar" (1989), and Ven Conmigo's "Baila Esta Cumbia" (1990). The commas are not needed at all.

Reception

[edit]
  • releases, Houston Chronicle's Ramiro Burr Two problems here. One, "the"—lowercase in this instance—should go before "Houston". Two, Burr wrote for San Antonio papers. In fact, comparing this with the very next item (Express-News, 9-19-93) reveals they are the same. It's odd that the Houston Chronicle piece published first. I'd excise the Chronicle reference.
    • The September 17, 1993, article in the El Paso Times is the same column.
  • describing it a commendable assemblage missing an "as"
  • media attention helped increased sales should be "increase"
  • at their Los Angeles, California, and Greensboro, North Carolina plants Los Angeles can be listed without a city, and that's a good thing. Should read at their Los Angeles and Greensboro, North Carolina, plants.

Sourcing and spot checks

[edit]
  • 24: "Vuelve a Mi" is the first single. The hot little polka should make a few waves with its ranchera beat. Checks out. checkY
  • 27: Going to have to AGF on this as it's an offline book reference to Patoski, Selena's biographer.
  • 31: Another offline source.
  • 41: ...runs El Palacio de la Musica in Central Falls. Peralto reported yesterday that the store sold out of [Selena] stock shortly after her death was reported, but that they expect a new order in by tomorrow. That's in Rhode Island, so this checks out there, but the only mention of a music store in Massachusetts doesn't seem to match the article claim: A clerk at Strawberries in Seekonk said the store did not have any Selena records, but would order them if customers wanted them. This is acceptable if mention of Massachusetts is dropped.
  • 45: Billboard chart shows the record debuting at number 1. checkY

No close paraphrasing or copyvio issues that I could find.

Encouragement: Clip the four citations to Newspapers.com so they can be read by users without subscriptions. I have done this for all but the El Paso Times 9-17-93 item.

Images

[edit]

The only image in this article is album art with appropriate NFUR. Encouragement: Add alt text.
