[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Jonmc.jpg
Image:Jonmc.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I received a notification of potential Speedy Deletion for this entry on Jon McLaughlin. Based on the two following criteria provided to me that must be met, it is obvious this can easily be resolved:
* A musician or ensemble is notable if it has had some sort of recognition by professional organizations, such as music charts. * Notability is met if the musician has been the subject of a broadcast by a media network.
Jon McLaughlin has appeared on the Billboard Adult Hot Top 40 (for 12+weeks) as well as rising as high as 5th on various other Christian charts. These notations have been added to the entry today and meets the first requirement for notability. Also, his performance of the Academy Award nominated song, "So Close" in noteworthy, leading him to perform at the 80th Annual Academy Awards. If this is not enough to meet the second requirement of notability, then the fact of his presence on both VH1 and MTV websites and music video segments should be. His presence as an Island Records artist should help to solidify his noteworthiness.
I look forward to the resolution of this aberrant Speedy Deletion notification.
