1st Deletion[edit]

This page was originally created and then promptly deleted by user:RasputinAXP without first posting a "speedy deletion" notice. This behavior is not condusive to a participatory environment at wikipedia. The page was recreated and posted a few minutes later. I think you will find that this band for sure meets every level of noteworthy-ness. - user:xsxex

As I said when you asked me on my Talk page, when I saw the article it was 5 external links with no other information. It was a CSD A3 and I speedied it. RasputinAXP c 13:59, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Showoff originallineup.jpg[edit]

Image:Showoff originallineup.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.
