Fair use rationale for Image:Damned Eloise.jpg
Image:Damned Eloise.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 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.

Eloise (Paul Ryan song) → Eloise (Barry Ryan song) — Relisted. fuzzy510 (talk) 07:24, 3 March 2011 (UTC) Barry Ryan is the original lead singer.--E-Kartoffel (talk) 21:51, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose: Although Barry Ryan may have sung it, Paul composed it. Subsequently all cover versions since are credited solely to Paul Ryan. The name as it is, is fine IMO, no need to move. FloydRule (talk) 12:43, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Move: Disambiguate songs by artist per Naming conventions (music). Piriczki (talk) 14:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment: No, that naming convention says nothing about preferring the performing artist who first releases a song to the writer as a disambiguator. The only mention of artist is Disambiguate albums and songs by artist and not by year unless the artist releases multiple albums with the same name. Vote below.

 * Oppose. Article covers all versions, not just the Barry Ryan version, and most notably of course the version by The Damned. Barry has no co-writer credit. Andrewa (talk) 23:10, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Song was written by Paul Ryan, so Eloise (Paul Ryan song) is accurate and reasonably concise. Naming according to recording artists would result in something like Eloise (song recorded by Barry Ryan, The Damned and others), which is a little longwinded. Qwfp (talk) 08:27, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

First Film clip Ever
I saw an interview with Barry Ryan where he stated that the clip for this song was the first music clip ever shot for a track (as opposed to just shooting the band singing on stage). Anyone got a reference for that? He's possibly right, as 1968 is the start of filmclips.
