Shouldn't this be at "Bádi"?

The cover on the magazine reads "Bádi". WhisperToMe 23:22, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I see it as a design thing. The Japanese "バデイ" is three syllables: ba-de-i (when de and small i are combined in katakana it's meant to reproduce a di sound, which doesn't exist in Japanese). Romanization doesn't use accents, so if the mark was a macron it would become ba-a-de-i. Exploding Boy 23:52, Jul 5, 2004 (UTC)

Oh, and to add to that, I found that the A is capitalized. So the magazine's title is "BÁdi". It is certainly a design thing. The page should be moved to the title that has the accent and the capitalized A. WhisperToMe 01:12, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Why was the page moved back? I don't understand why the magazine cover should be disregarded? Umlaut-rock band articles are at the titles with the umlauts, and European names (e.g. Gerhard Schröder) are at the umlauted titles. WhisperToMe 04:14, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)

On second thought, I saw Golbez's post. Now I know why it was changed. WhisperToMe 06:57, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)

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

Image:Badi.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.
