Talk:Rufus (band)

message: :Image:Rufusandchakakhan.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.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Rufusandchakakhan.jpg

message: A series of edits in mid-August 2007 by Night Time provided the majority of the content of this page; most of the edits since then have been content tweaks.  Unfortunately, large portions of that content appear cribbed word-for-word from Allmusic.  For instance, compare the text of the career section with the 
artist biography on Allmusic.  Except for some minor edits that have occurred since, they're identical.  This seems a violation of the Wikipedia copyright policy; at the very least, it's problematic because Wikipedia content is asserted to be released under the terms of the GFDL, which isn't possible here since Allmusic holds the copyright to this text.  A significant rewrite seems necessary here.  Funkapus (talk) 19:38, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyrighted content from Allmusic makes up a large fraction of this entry

message: This article features many statements that are quite subjective in nature without any substantiation. Such items as Chaka's nicknames and fan preferences are part of this situation. While possibly true to some, many or few, there needs to be reliable sourcing for these statements. I realized the problem to be widespread after the first "cn" I inserted. Instead of putting in this flag multiple times I wanted to make an appeal to the original author(s) to put in the work to improve the article. My interest in the group is casual so I lack the motivation to do the work necessary. Again, I would encourage someone motivated to help improve the article beyond where it is as of this writing. Thanks!THX1136 (talk) 15:16, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
