[edit] Content

Hi. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Canadian Idiot gives the deletion criteria as follows: This song does not merit an entire page as it does not have a music video or a single released for this specific song. However, this contest refers to the song as "Weird Al's new single", and notes that winners of the contest will have their clips appear in "Weird Al's real video." Sounds to me like the song will have a music video and be released as a single. --Maxamegalon2000 22:51, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, my fault. Heh, forgot I wrote that. Go nuts with the article! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 01:55, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
No problem. Actually, until the contest actually ends there's not much more to add. --Maxamegalon2000 06:40, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
Actually, a list of all the sterotype stuff mentioned in the song might help fillout the page. JQFTalkContribs 16:58, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
I added a section about sterotypes.--Gen. Quon 19:43, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
I removed it. Sorry but it needs to be fixed. It resembles strongly to the lyrics. --esanchez, Camp Lazlo fan! 19:44, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
YOUR KIDDING ME! if you removed it for that, then take a look at Albuquerque (song) There's a big "Summary" of the video which is like the whole song written in complete sentences. wow... --Joooeeeelllll 07:01, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Over

When is this contest suppose to be over? It's been a month.

[edit] Single or No?

Is this song really a single? The release date for it is the same as the CD's release date, so I'm not sure. This needs to be checked out. --Temporarily Insane (talk) 22:44, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

What you talkin about, foo? Where do you see SINGLE> "Canadian Idiot is a 2006 song by "Weird Al" Yankovic from his album Straight Outta Lynwood." guess its been fixed --Joooeeeelllll 07:03, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Someone really has to put some external links in... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.253.10.227 (talk) 05:24, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

What's with the track listing section? Its a downloadable single. Generally when you download stuff, its only one song, not a entire list of songs Muchachos —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muchachos (talkcontribs) 22:27, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Soli4.jpg

Image:Soli4.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.
