I do not think "Fair Use" applies to this copyright album cover. It could get the Wikipedia project into trouble to use it. Caltrop

I think the part of this page that describes each song in detail needs to be edited. It doesn't really convey the professionalism or objective viewpoint I see elsewhere. Since I'm new, I thought I would give someone a chance to respond before laying in. Monkeyfacebag 22:29, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

I found it fascinating but lots of original research needs trimming out. I might have a go some time. Soo 18:53, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

What is wrong with the bold text on the second song? I can't seem to fix it at all.

Fixed it!

[edit] Silly Inclusion

"Though Stankonia and Speakerboxxx/The Love Below would be more commercially successful, many fans view Aquemini as OutKast's definitive album."

First of all, Stankonia and Speakerboxxx/The Love Below are quite clearly more popular than Aquemini; "Commercially successful" isn't a euphamism for less hip, and if certain albums are more popular than others, there's no reason to state that "many fans view Aquemini as Outkast's definitive album"." People who view this as their best record exist, I'm sure (although they probably tend to favor it since it wasn't a pop hit), but there's no reason at all to include this point in an encyclopedia article since it's obviously POV and there's no citation for it either. It's another subtle way of adding POV to an article.


The track-list is stanking brilliant!

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Aqueminicvr.jpg

Image:Aqueminicvr.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.

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 19:45, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
