Fair use rationale for Image:Marilyn Manson - Lunchbox.jpg[edit]

Image:Marilyn Manson - Lunchbox.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 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.

I thought this song implied that the kid was carrying a gun in his lunchbox and that's why he was "armed real well" - would also explain the "pow pow pow". But maybe I'm wrong. 74.68.123.162 (talk) 22:42, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If Manson has stated that this song is inspired by Nikki Sixx, can someone provide a reference please? I've never heard this anywhere else, if there's no reliable proof it should go. TheEmpiricalGuy (talk) 09:30, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Lunchbox (song)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Lunchbox (song)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 17:23, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again Magic. There were a couple of minor issues with this one but, again, I figured it would be quicker just to fix them myself, rather than do the norm (write about it here). This was pretty much a good article anyway, save some MOS:ENDASH and MOS:BADHEAD fixes: [1]. Then I, stupidly, added some temporary repetition to the article before fixing it myself: [2]. Also some weasel-ish phrases, and some more repetition: [3], [4].

Aside from those [now resolved] issues, this was clearly another good article. Very informative. I had no idea the band were being touted by major labels so early (from After School Special, seriously? If it were Manson saying this, I'd call it hyperbole, but since it's being said by Daisy Berkowitz, I'm sure it's true—nice find!). The Manson Family Album#Background needs updating. I'm happy to promote this. Congratulations, @MagicatthemovieS: Homeostasis07 (talk) 23:49, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Damn. Neglected to mention that I did all the usual CopyVio and Image check stuff: all images are creative commons/public domain, except for the sound file, which is less than the 10% limit. Highest copy-vio reading (43-or-something %) was from the 1999 Rolling Stone article, and that was all from direct quotations, so no problems there.

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
