Fair use rationale for Image:Bowie ThisIsNotAmerica.jpg

[edit]

Image:Bowie ThisIsNotAmerica.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 18:15, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where's Chris?

[edit]

Past Versions of this article mentioned the instrumental song "Chris" originally written by Mays and Metheny (without Bowie). Bowie (together with or authorized by Mays and Metheny) then reworked "Chris" for the soundtrack of "The falcon and the snowman" and turned it into "This is not America" by adding lyrics and digital drums. The fact that the B-Side of the single release "This is not America" does not contain the Song "Chris", but instead an instrumental version of "This is not America" does not contradict the existence of "Chris". It simply states the fact that there's two instrumental songs that, how ever slightly, differ from eachother. 2003:CA:3BD1:9701:25DD:12E3:7BB4:8C23 (talk) 16:33, 16 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
