Fair use rationale for Image:Japanese music of the sun.jpg

Image:Japanese music of the sun.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 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 09:34, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

regarding demo/mixtape This Is Rihanna

I wanted to insert some words about this in my edit summary when I fixed a link to This Is Rihanna here, but it saved to early for me. Anyhow, I am not certain whether it belongs on the discography, I have never heard of this mixtape before the article showed up here, and it might be deleted again- I can see it has been deleted before. The question is, do you want to have anything about this mixtape (if you know it is for real) either here or in the main article or by itself? Greswik (talk) 20:52, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm deleting the article. If someone can find a reliable source for assertions made in it, then it could be mentioned, but in general discographies shouldn't list demos sent searching for record companies. If there isn't a source, then it shouldn't be mentioned. Rigadoun (talk) 07:58, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Some questions on sourcs and one spot where a quotation needs a citation
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:

  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow folks to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on. Ealdgyth - Talk 19:24, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
Addressed all. Calvin Watch n' Learn 20:00, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
Actually - I'm not really happy with this explanation - I asked specific questions here about the reputation of the given sources for fact checking and accuracy - just because it's an interview doesn't mean we still don't need to judge the accuracy and fact checking of these sources. Nor am I happy about this edit summary "Removed Discogs, but the other two are allowed to stay. And FA reviewer has said they are acceptable for GA" which basically thumbs its nose at my questions - which I would still like answered. I would like the questions answered - I'm conducting the GA review - not someone else, and while I'm certainly going to take her opinion into consideration - I would appreciate something that addresses the actual questions I asked - the policy I linked to WP:SOURCES must be followed. Interviews conducted by non-reliable sites are still non-reliable - there is no "interview exception" in the policy. Ealdgyth - Talk 01:21, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
I only asked Nikki because she conducts the source and reference checks on FACs, and believe me, she knows which websites are and are not reliable. I don't know what I am supposed to do it about it. You are saying removed, yet an FA reviewer is saying that they are allowed to stay. You asked if they are reliable, I asked Nikki if they are reliable to use for GA, and she returned with 2 out of the 3 being reliable for inclusion.
I know all about Niki - I used to do what she does at FAC - and I adore her dearly - but I do not consider all interviews instantly reliable .. I want to see WHY these two interviews should be reliable. I too am an FAC reviewer - I know what sources pass muster at FAC and I'm also a pretty dang experienced GA reviewer - something over 180 or so GA reviews I've conducted. And I have Niki's page watched - she didn't say they were certainly reliable, she said in her opinion they were borderline. Show me why borderline reliable sources fulfill the policy I linked above. Ealdgyth - Talk 01:39, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Well, I don't know what you want me to do. Until it is proved that they are grossly unreliable, they remain. For the Kidzworld source, Rihanna specifically spoke to them for the interview. Calvin Watch n' Learn 01:45, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
I'd like you to show me WHY they are reliable. The standard isn't "grossly unreliable and it goes" but "only unreliable and it can stay"... To determine the reliability of the site, we need to know what sort of fact checking they do. You can establish this by showing news articles that say the site is reliable/noteworthy/etc. or you can show a page on the site that gives their rules for submissions/etc. or you can show they are backed by a media company/university/institute, or you can show that the website gives its sources and methods, or there are some other ways that would work too. The best method is a mix of all of the above. It's their reputation for reliability that needs to be demonstrated. Please see Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-06-26/Dispatches for further detailed information. Yes, this is GA, so you're not having to show "high quality" .. you merely need to show "reliable". Interviews are subject to editorial error/bias/misreporting/etc, so while I don't doubt that Rihana spoke to the site, how can we know that the site transmitted the interview correctly if they don't have any sort of reputation for fact checking? Ealdgyth - Talk 01:49, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Kidzworld

Calvin Watch n' Learn

  • That's just stating that kids can use kidzworld's blogging platform, doesn't speak to the reliability of the site or it's contents. Ealdgyth - Talk 02:31, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
    It's not referring to the kids, kids can use the site for chatting etc., but the site also publishes interviews like the Rihanna one (which isn't done by little children). The point I am making is that the people who I listed have cited Kidzworld, as a company. Calvin Watch n' Learn 02:35, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
    I can read the article you've listed - it doesn't say a thing about kidzworld's fact checking or anything like that. Right now, the interview is being used to cite quotations from Rihanna - which need a source that meets the RS policy. As of now, I don't see that kidzworld meets that policy. I've done some poking around of my own - I cannot find a single news source that uses anything from kidzworld as a source for any sort of news article. I checked on her own website - and I did some google news searches, and found nothing about this. I'm afraid that at this point, nothing you've brought up meets the RS policy for this site. Ealdgyth - Talk 13:26, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
    Rihanna sat down and spoke with Kidzworld for the interview. I don't know what else to say. Apart from if this has to be removed, then virtually most of the Background section and the Recording section will be removed, providing next to no information, meaning that the article will probably not meet the guidelines for enough information, resulting in a Fail. Calvin Watch n' Learn 14:58, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
    I do not doubt that she sat down with them for an interview. However, we cannot know that they transmitted the results of the interview properly as they have no reputation for interviewing. I'm willing to overlook the usage for everything but direct quotes - but the GA criteria are quite clear that only RSs can be used for direct quotations. Ealdgyth - Talk 15:04, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

&::::::: There was only one quote to re-write. Calvin Watch n' Learn 15:10, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Artistdirect

Calvin Watch n' Learn

Looks good on artists direct - but can we get some not-Kidworldz endorsements? Are they cited/used by any news organizations/sites? Say Nickelodeon? Disney? Also - if Rihana's site links to the exact interviews used, then that would show that she and/or her people regard the interview as reliable. Ealdgyth - Talk 02:03, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
I can't say that Im really happy about the reliability of kidzworld, but the GA criteria do not require that every source used be reliable - only things likely to be challenged and quotations. With the elimination of the direct quoting, this article meets GA criteria, but barely. Strongly suggest you do some digging in print sources to find more information - its quite likely there are print sources that could be used to replace kidzworld. Ealdgyth - Talk 15:50, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks. Calvin Watch n' Learn 15:51, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Needs to be taken to GA status or else this can't be a good topic.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 17:37, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

It was decided it didn't have to be when it was nominated.  — AARONTALK 17:53, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
Where?  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 17:57, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
I didn't say on the review. It was raised somewhere but it was decided by someone that it was important enough. No one else raised it as an issue on the review. I'll do it if you want, it's not a problem.  — AARONTALK 18:02, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
