Fair use rationale for Image:Merkin Ball album cover.jpg

Image:Merkin Ball album cover.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 ensure 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.

Merge proposal

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was WP:SILENCE—merging. ResPM (T🔈 🎵C) 13:04, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I propose merging I Got Id into Merkin Ball. Most of the content from I Got Id is replicated in Merkin Ball, and any information that is not currently in Merkin Ball can easily be added in. On I Got Id, the Lyrics section is uncited, but the corresponding subsection on Merkin Ball goes more in depth and is well cited. The B-side, "Long Road", redirects to Merkin Ball, so "I Got Id" should redirect here as well. ResPM (T🔈 🎵C) 14:35, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
