[edit] Gothic

Just a short point that I felt worth making:

I feel the distinction should be made between a gothic appearance and a subscription to the gothic subculture, hence my edit. Though I cannot call myself an expert, goth culture represents , at the very least, a statement about oneself. Death has no affiliations with the music culture or the persona represented by the subculture, she merely has the appearance of a goth. I know this sounds pedantic, but in truth death is almost the anti-goth, deliberately exuding humility and plainess, and the cultural references she frequently makes -mary poppins, little mermaid, etc. can only be said to clash with any view of what the goth subculture- if not all goths themselves, to be fair. It would seems reasonable to say that Gaiman is even deliberately pushing against death -and by extension the sandman meta-series- being pigeonholed as goth-oriented. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.190.62 (talk • contribs) 21:48, 5 June 2006

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Death the time of your life.jpg

Image:Death the time of your life.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.
