message: I lost track of this but here is my case. "Shoot the Piano Player" gets 127,000 google hits, "Tirez sur le pianiste" gets 79,000. In searching amazon.ca, it's been released on VHS twice (cover images 1 and 2) and DVD twice (covers 1 and 2) as Shoot the Piano Player and not at all as Tirez sur le pianiste (it is listed under the French title but the product is branded with the English title). It was also released on laserdisc under the English title. And in the '99 Truffaut retrospective it was listed under the English title again. And all movies on the IMDb are listed in their original language, not their common title. Wikipedia policy dictates we go with the common title. Good enough?

*Speedy close. Sorry, but losing track of one's RM is not a reason to start another one. Your previous request closed 10 days ago, so I suggest you respect the closing administator's decision. Also see WP:POINT. Prolog 05:57, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I think this settles it: Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English. It's been established that Shoot the Piano Player's use is practically exclusive in North American and it's used extensively in the UK. And even if that weren't the case Shoot the Piano Player was used first (and as the only alternate title until the other was inserted during the course of the above discussion) in this article. Any further protest? Doctor Sunshine 07:20, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Tirez sur le pianiste.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 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.
