[edit] Lets not throw out the baby with the bathwater

I know that the original entry needed quite a bit of work, but I really don't think it was necessary to remove Bill's credits in their entirety. Though the list was unecessarily long(it was 4am and I expected to return to clean this up today), almost every artist/entertainer on Wiki have a credits section. I also think that Bill's story of how he became a comedian is interesting. I'll be replacing it once I find my source again, I'll edit out the profanity.

This is an entry for a comedian. We can keep it accurate, NPOV and fun. Right now it reads like a coroner's report. I'd love it if we could all use the talk page before major edits like this as well.

And thanks for the help! --Haborym 23:38, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Shouldn't the article about comedian Bill Burr be on the bad jokes page? Btw, How do I get to the 'sandbox'?

does the O&A plug need to be in the entry?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Billburr2.jpg

Image:Billburr2.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. 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 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 01:12, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
