[edit] Other Lost and Founds

Lost and Found is an extremely common title for books and music albums alike. Why this article should be dedicated to Mudvayne is mind-boggling. This wasn't even the only popular music album to carry this title in 2005, let alone over all time.

That's what the disambiguation page is for. Of course there are other Lost and Founds, but each article should be dedicated to a specific one.--BennyD 02:49, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

The result of the proposal was all 3 moved, per uncontroversial (and rational) request. -Patstuarttalk|edits 01:54, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move #1 (Mudvayne album)

Lost and Found → Lost and Found (Mudvayne album) — There are many uses of the term "Lost and Found", and I see no evidence that this album is more notable than the others listed at Lost and Found (disambiguation). That disambiguation page could then be moved to Lost and Found. Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 09:15, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

  1. Support per nomination, but see also my comment below. PC78 11:46, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment, looking at it again I can see that there is also an article at Lost and found, which would seem to be the primary topic for this term. I still support moving Lost and Found, but maybe it's best to leave the dab page where it is. PC78 14:00, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
  2. Strong support per nom - but redirect to Lost and found. 146.186.210.78 20:34, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
  3. Support, and make Lost & Found, Lost and found, etc, all redir back to a single disambig page.--AtD 14:55, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  4. Support. I've dealt with some of these articles in the past, and they're a real tangle. I agree with moving the existing articles at "Lost And Found," "Lost & Found," and "Lost and Found" to disambiguated names, and then redirect all those alternate spellings to a single disambiguation page. --Elonka 23:04, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

  • There's also Lost And Found and Lost & Found, both of which contain articles, but should probably be redirects to the dab page. PC78 11:44, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Good point; I've added them to the move request, and changed my mind about moving the disambiguation page, per your comment above. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 21:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move #2 (Will Smith album)

Lost & Found → Lost and Found (Will Smith album) — This album is also called "Lost and Found" (not "Lost & Found"), and should be disambiguated like other albums with this title. Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 21:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move #3 (Christian rock band)

Lost And Found → Lost and Found (Christian rock band) — This band apparently capitalizes the word "and" in their name, but I don't think that's a sufficient distinction for article naming. Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 21:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Support per my above comments. I'd prefer lowercasing the "and" though, and moving to Lost and Found (Christian rock band). I also have strong concerns about the band's notability, especially considering the article's lack of reliable sources. If other sources can be found, then the article's title should reflect the most commonly-used spelling of the band's name, as it appears in those third-party sources. --Elonka 23:04, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:LostAndFound.JPG

Image:LostAndFound.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 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.BetacommandBot 05:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
