Talk:Ask (song)

Fair use rationale for Image:Asksmiths.gif
Image:Asksmiths.gif 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 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.

Tom Cruise 'fact' removed
The article had a section which read as follows: '' In Popular Culture Famous actor and philanthropist Tom Cruise publicly stated on the Oprah Winfrey Show that "Ask" was his second favorite song by The Smiths, after a cover of Jon Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer".''

I just deleted this text. This Tom Cruise 'fact' was not referenced, and is unclearly written. (Is his favourite song a version of "Livin' on a Prayer" by The Smiths"? I can't imagine the band ever performing that song.)Stuart mcmillen (talk) 00:01, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
