Talk:Never Mind the Ballots

message: :Image:Chumbaballots.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 Wikipedia articles 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 19:42, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Chumbaballots.jpg

message: For over a decade, this article has had an (entirely deserved) “unreferenced” tag at its top, thanks in large part to the fact that it contains an awesome amount of information with nary a citation in sight. It’s clear that some Chumbawamba fan put a lot of time & effort into this — and I don’t doubt its accuracy — but as we know, Wikipedia doesn’t take original research... and if this isn’t original research, I don’t know what is. Most of the article consists of song summaries, observations of recurring themes, and even speculation regarding whom the album’s fictional candidates are modeled after.
On the very off chance that any of this happens to be extracted from a credible, non-primary source, by all means, add it back in. But until then, I think the best place for it is here, on the Talk page.
