Talk:David "Fathead" Newman

message: Why did he call him "Fathead"?  The fact that he doesn't read music very well doesn't explain this very clearly.  But maybe that's just how the story goes.  Padde 10:40, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:FrontMrFathead2.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:  Junk 

message: I guess I could check WP:MOS, but since the subject was (almost) always credited as David "Fathead" Newman (not "Fathead Newman", not "David Newman"), and that's how he's generally known to the world, doesn't it make sense to re-name the article as such? -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 23:29, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
