"Artist's opinion notwithstanding, the album is still catalogued by Secretly Canadian as a Songs: Ohia album"

Would you kindly explain why an artist doesn't get to name his own albums? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.220.196 (talkcontribs)

Quite simply because the artist is not the one to decide how the album is marketed. That's a sad but well-established fact in the music industry. If Secretly Canadian considers it a better strategy to sell the album as a Songs: Ohia album, then that's their prerogative as it's them who put up the money. And there's clear evidence that this album is marketed as a Songs: Ohia album: [1], [2], [3]. ~ trialsanderrors 02:30, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:SongsMagnoliaSC76big.jpg

Image:SongsMagnoliaSC76big.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
