Fair use rationale for Image:Nerdapalooza.jpg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Nerdapalooza.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.

- It needs to be more detailed than that, explaining exactly why the image qualifies as "fair use". See the rationale guideline on developing rationale for more details. Alternatively, you can release the image under a GFDL-compatible "free license" (which permits the image to be use and/or modification by anyone for any purpose as long as the work is properly attributed to its respective owners and contributors). See Wikipedia:Image use policy for more details on that. Dancter 03:19, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
i don't know how to do that but hex asked for this wiki to be made and I have word from him to use it -ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 03:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- You should get him to clarify the terms under which he is allowing the image to be used. If need be, I'll try to fix the image myself. Dancter 04:21, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Yes if you could fix it that would be great if you could do it also i thought the creator was hex but it was a friend of ours but we still can use it the creator is "Steffo" from "My Parents Favorite Music" did it thanks for the help - ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 05:22, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- That's good to know, but I'm asking exactly what uses for the image are being permitted. In most cases, contributions to Wikipedia are subject to a GNU Free Documentation License. Since images are usually created elsewhere, for other purposes, or by someone else; such permission cannot be presumed; and licensing terms need to be explicitly established.
- If possible, could you get the copyright holder to look at the GFDL terms? Basically, the GFDL means that although they would retain the copyright and authorship of their work, they are granting permission for all others (not just Wikipedia) to use, copy, and share the image freely -- and even potentially use them commercially -- so long as they do not try to claim the copyright themselves, nor prevent others from using or copying them freely.
- If they would agree to that, it would be ideal, as it would be 100%-compatible with Wikipedia licensing. If not, there are other options available. Dancter 09:33, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

i put references so it should not be deleted now - ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 23:09, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- The article was not up for deletion, but could be deleted in the future. Please read the text of the notability guideline for why I re-added the template, particularly the qualification on "significant coverage". Dancter 03:19, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
well we have all the info we have up there there is no more if there is we will add to it -ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 03:41, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Also whats with
Whats with deleting part of the article the info that was there is needed - ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 03:41, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- I disagree. I think it is non-compliant with policy on what Wikipedia is not. The article is supposed to be a well-composed, balanced prose overview of what the subject is, and not merely a collection or list of information related to the subject. You had removed the {{cleanup-laundry}} tag I had placed requesting that the roster list be converted into prose, so that the a context would be established for why the information is important to understand what the subject is, so I figured that I might as well be bold and go ahead and remove the section. I had added a link in the "External links" section, where the information could be found, so the reader would still have access to the information, if they so wished. Also, having a separate heading for one short sentence on the venue is unnecessary, as the information could just as easily be covered in the lead, and I had added placed that information there in my edit.

- Ya that sounds good - ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 05:19, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- but also on the fact that people can see the page and have no idea whos playing if they dont look at the bottom of the page can we have a section that says Roster right under the venue that has the link - ZombieK —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zombiekenny (talk • contribs) 05:24, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Nerdapalooza
Nerdapalooza has been fairly well-exposed in the media and it most likely meets the criteria for inclusion. I would also advise expanding the article to include information on the Nerdapalooza Southeast show which happened in late August 2007. --Rob T 20:35, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
2010 artist line up
Updating the artist line-up after the official event. I'm not fully aware how listing correct information from the source of the event itself is "addition of dubious unsourced content" requiring a HG for vandalism? I would like a full explanation on how you see this, although not having citation for the previous years line up is just fine.--Amari42 (talk) 03:08, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
