[edit] History

The entire history has been copied from thePPN wiki's biography. I'm going to remove it if it's not changed within a few days. ~ Wapiko 23:14, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

It's been changed. ☆CharlesNguyễn 20:49, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other band with same name

There was also a British "indie"/"Britpop"/alternative/whatever style band called Perfume in the mid 1990s or so. Don't think they're still around, and it's quite hard to find many references to them online (sadly this is even harder now due to all the stuff about the Japanese "Perfume"!), but I think they did seem to get a fair bit of radio play (by DJs such as Steve Lamacq at least) at the time.

So maybe there should be a disambiguation thingy of some sort? Any thoughts? I don't think I could make a page about them myself, I know too little about them to even make a stub. --OccasionalTomble 06:58, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

If a page about that group could be created possibly under the title Perfume (band) if they play instruments or Perfume (British group) if they don't, then a disambig. link to that page could be placed at the top of this article using {{otheruses4|Japanese pop/techno group|British band|Perfume (band)}} seeing that it would be a stub, but there's no need for a disambig. to a non-existing article. ☆CharlesNguyễn 07:52, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

I have created a page at Perfume (band).--Michig 17:38, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] myspace page

Erm.. they had an official MySpace page (complete with video, flash and everything), but the profile seems to have been deleted recently.. leaving an unofficial Perfume profile page there... so yeah.. don't add that one to the External links section... I wonder what happened to the real one - I hope the owners of the unofficial profile didn't like.. "dob them in" wrongfully or something :/ 58.96.65.248 12:37, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm afraid that that page never was an official Perfume Myspace page, so maybe it was closed due to copyright infringement. --Ekuseru (talk) 00:08, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Photo perfume electro.jpg

Image:Photo perfume electro.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 ensure 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.
