[edit] Regarding Rock You and Champions

> "Love of My Life" was such a concert favourite that Mercury frequently stopped singing and allowed the audience take over, a phenomenon that encouraged the band to write such songs as "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions" specifically with audience participation in mind

That's a very false observation: the first time they ever played LOML live was during News Of The World North American Tour in November 1977, and guess what: both Rock You and Champions had already been written, recorded and released! As a matter of fact, they were playing both songs on stage too.

I'm not sure how that proves that it was a false observation. If you listen to bootlegs of Queen, at times the crowd got louder than the band so Freddie simply allowed the crowd to sing all/most of it.

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

Image:Luvlifej.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 04:30, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Quality of article

Looking at the grading scale, it looks like the information is here in this article to upgrade it, but it is poorly structured. I will look at improving it. --Nyeguy 04:21, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I made a couple of moves, rewrote a couple of sentences, and with a little restructuring, the article seems easier to follow. --Nyeguy 04:29, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
