[edit] Quality standards
I moved most of the content from the intro to the actual body of the article. Hopefully this will help it comply.
[edit] Christianity?
Um... I see that Nash is described as a Christian before anything else, and am curious as to why this is deemed to be of primary importance. I have never seen any other article with that kind of beginning. How is her religion relevant, and can (should) this be changed to instead read "is an American singer and composer, best known as the lead vocalist for the rock band Sixpence None the Richer[1]."?

- Um... Christianity is what she is and puts into all her music. Read the lyrics. And search a little harder and you will find articles on here starting with a person or a band's Christianity, when they are a Christian artist or band. Also, you will find many articles on her Christianity on the net. Ever thought of searching Wikipedia or the Christian Media or are there lazy wiki researchers on here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.104.22.182 (talk) 02:49, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Personally, I think leading with Leigh's affirmation of her Christian faith is altogether appropriate. Leigh Nash, along with SIXPENCE NONE THE RICHER'S founder, Matt Slocum, have both made much of how they prefer to be known as 'Christians in a band'; this as opposed to being a 'Christian Band'. Their decision to market themselves in this fashion was expressed by their desire to maximize exposure/circulation while affording them the prerogative to write/sing about whatever they wish. Notwithstanding, both parties have been quick to affirm their Christianity & its significant influence in their music. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.174.66.111 (talk) 19:43, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Fauxliage.jpg
Image:Fauxliage.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.
