[edit] Citations

Concerns raised that citations are required for the following assertions, the text was written this way because of previous concerns about the uniqueness of Jaikoz, I believe these assertions to be true and have added more information below but I do not have independent definitive proof. If you want to rewrite the text that is not a problem, but I believe Jaikoz has a number of unique features that merit it having a page.

1. Jaikoz was the first tagger available that could perform acoustic fingerprint matching automatically without user intervention.

This was done on the 2nd of June 2005 ( see http://www.jthink.net/jaikoz/jsp/news/build1006.jsp), the musicbrainz tagger would perform acoustic matching before that but it wasn't fully automated, as a user you still had to decide which matches to accept,

2. The majority of taggers only provide a metadata lookup[citation needed] and, because of the inaccuracy of this method, requires the user to confirm modifications. Well this is a statement of fact, there are very few tag editors that support online matching based on the acoustic id, the vast majority only support metadata match from freedb or Gracenote, a few support MusicIP but not many. PicardQt and Jaikoz are the ONLY taggers that match against MusicIP and MusicBrainz. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pault100 (talk • contribs)

Well, per the notability guideline, if no published, third party, reliable sources on the subject cannot be produced then the subject is not notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia entry. If it really was the first to do certain tasks, then I would at least expect some independent (and reliable) reviews of the application?

"first tagger available that could perform acoustic fingerprint matching automatically without user intervention"

But what does it do if the confidence in a fingerprint lookup is low? What does it do if the fingerprint has several matches? I have used the MusicBrainz (classic) Tagger way back, and it certainly did tag files automatically if its confidence was good enough.

"there are very few tag editors that support online matching based on the acoustic id"

Right, although sources supporting this claim shouldn't be scarce. -- intgr 20:17, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Jaikoz osx screenshot.jpg

Image:Jaikoz osx screenshot.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 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.
