Fair use rationale for Image:The Beauty Process.jpg

Image:The Beauty Process.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.

Overall GA review

Needs charts table and genre of the album.

Added punk rock as the album's genre (as per reception section). Also, is it really necessary to add a table just for 2 US charts that are already mentioned in the promotion and release section? In my opinion, charts tables are only useful if the album in question has been commercially successful. --Niwi3 (talk) 20:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Where is that on the commercial section? Well, I have seen with one, some people maybe just looking for that and don't want to read a whoel section. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 22:34, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Few errors to amend and some other picky stuff from my part. It will be GA in no time, on hold for seven days, good luck! MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 17:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your review, really appreciated. I have addressed most of the issues you brought up and left two comments above. Let me know what you think! --Niwi3 (talk) 20:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed the remaining issues. Let me know if there is anything else that needs to be fixed. --Niwi3 (talk) 19:26, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
