Fair use rationale for Image:Bcband.jpg

Image:Bcband.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 02:39, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The picture of the band is NOT the Breakfast Club in the page.

I'm Ed Gilroy's son/Dan Gilroy's nephew. The cover band in the group's wikipedia is NOT the "real" Breakfast Club, ie, the band described in wikipedia.

They are NOT a cover band!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.98.88.5 (talk) 20:37, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

I'm proposing a merge to Madonna (entertainer), as she, Stephen Bray, and Randy Jackson were the only indisputable notable musicians in this group. King of smart alecks 12:31, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see why it should be merged to Madonna at all. They had a top 10 hit as a band and Madonna wasn't even with the group at that time. They are notable in their own right.--Tuzapicabit (talk) 01:17, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Tuzapicabit, and I've removed the merge tag. A group that has a top 10 hit is usually sufficiently notable to warrant an article of its own -- particularly given that Madonna was not even a member when the group had its biggest hit, and that apparently she was never a member of the group at the same time as Randy Jackson was. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:13, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Randy Jackson

this is not the randy jackson from american idol, it was michael's younger brother that was in the band.
