I merged Dancing in the Street (Nikki Webster single) here as it was rather short and failed to establish why Webster's cover of the song deserves an entirely separate article. Lots of articles for songs that have had notable cover versions (such as I Will Always Love You, Respect (song)) have all the information on each version in one article; I don't see why this one should be treated differently. Perhaps user:Lillygirl would like to explain why she reverted my merge and split the Webster article back off into Dancing In The Street (Nikki Webster song) (losing the original page's edit history in the process) without any explanation other than "it looses all my reseach". Extraordinary Machine 21:03, 10 April 2006 (UTC) Cause it looks to messy all in one place and some people who just browse might get confused. Lillygirl 12:49, 11 April 2006 Does anyone have a source for the idea that this song was a response to widespread street fighting and riots in 1964? So this would be kind of a "can't we all get along" response. Not mentioned currently in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.123.250.198 (talk) 18:15, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Image:BowieJagger DancingInTheStreet.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.
