[edit] Notability

This band IS notable. It has been hailed by many magazines as one of the up and coming Canadian bands, they signed a contract with EMI, worked with members of Death from Above 1979 and MSTRKRFT and opened for Guns 'N' Roses in front of crowds of more than 10 000. Come on!!!! Drop the "speedy deletion" madness! Terveetkadet

The article is tagged for proposed deletion, not speedy deletion. Can you cite the sources that say these things about the band? That would go a long way toward asserting notability, but it has to be verifiable. Seraphimblade 12:56, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't care... Submitting an article for deletion less than 2 minutes after it was written? That IS crazy! Here... take a look at the "references" section. Are you happy now, you source freak? Terveetkadet

definately notably, their single "Do it or die" is getting a lot of airplay on popular Toronto radiostations. 216.234.58.18 (talk) 16:26, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:Diemannequin.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.
