I feel Janis Joplin's association with the song was misrepresented, I hope the edits I made to her section are satisfactory to most. Kristofferson and Joplin were closely associated.

[edit] "most-covered"?
The article currently needs a citation for the statememnt "one of the most-covered songs of all time", otherwise it should be removed. Design 23:26, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Broken link
I don't know if this is the ideal place to do this. But the external link for the lyrics of this song is currently broken and leads to the front page of the site.
An alternate link might be [link to copyvio website removed] (the first one googling)
- Are we allowed to post such links? My understanding is that links to lyric sites aren't alloweed on grounds of copyvio. 23skidoo 04:44, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Contradiction between this and Janis Joplin
Me and Bobby McGee and Janis Joplin have contradictory information. Janis Joplin says that the last song she recored was Mercedes Benz while Me and Bobby McGee says that it was Me and Bobby McGee. - Jarn 04:52, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Me and Bobby McGee - Roger Miller.jpg
Image:Me and Bobby McGee - Roger Miller.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.
