Fair use rationale for Image:Bb&m.jpg

Image:Bb&m.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 Wikipedia articles 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 02:43, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

My copy of The Birds, the Bees and the Monkees

Hey, does anyone know about some releases of 'The Monkees: Original Album Series'? Because with my copy of 'the Birds, the Bees and the Monkees', the 16th track 'The Girl I Left Behind Me' cuts off at '0:59' and at '1:00' the song 'Dream World' (which was already featured at the start of the album begins) starts where the rest of 'The Girl I Left Behind Me' should have been.

The song's running time is '2:40' as usual and when that happens, 'Dream World' continues into what should have been 'Lady's Baby'. At '1:38' 'Dream World' finishes and at '1:41' 'Auntie's Municipal Court' begins but it cuts off pre-maturely at '2:29' which was where 'Lady's Baby' should have ended.

It's okay, I wasn't angry, nor did I feel cheated.

(The original album series was extremely cheap for a five disc set - a pretty good bargain, and although the engineers didn't bother to clean up all the glitches, the quality was remarkable).

In any case I downloaded infinetely superior copies of 'The Girl I Left Behind Me' and 'Lady's Baby' from an online copy of 'The Birds, the Bees and the Monkees' and burned them and the 15 other songs I already had on to a disc as a second copy of the album (I kept the master of course).

But does anyone else know anything about this quirk? -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 09:35, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

"Yielding"

Technically speaking, the LP did not "yield" Daydream Believer, since the single was out several months previous to it. Someone more industrious than I might want to figure out how to rephrase that piece of info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.224.74.170 (talk) 04:23, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree that rewording it would be better than removing it since it is valid information. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 04:29, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

Banner about style, Why?

Since March 2012 a banner above the article states thus:

  "This article is written like a personal reflection, personal essay, or argumentative essay that states a Wikipedia editor's personal feelings or presents an original argument about a topic. Please help improve it by rewriting it in an encyclopedic style.  (March 2012)"
 

Why, for 14 years has this been here, and what exactly is the offending information? I think the article could be expanded to learn more about intimate particulars of the production and marketing of the LP. For example, a limited run of mono pressings were made in the US that now command high prices. More information can be found around the web about this. Why just a blurb in the Wiki? The story about this record could take up an entire book. Without deleting the interesting stories about the record presented now, this could and should be a 'Good' class article if someone wanted to devote the time to it.
