Fair use rationale for Image:No Matter What.jpg

[edit]

Image:No Matter What.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.

There are other songs called "No Matter What", so a disambiguation is required. Maybe it should be changed to No Matter What (Andrew Lloyd Webber song). --Wolfer68 (talk) 21:08, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I would agree with that; it isn't really their song. The title should be changed, and maybe the Boyzone cover version could be made into a section within the article, focusing more on the performance of the song in the musical it is actually from. ElphaPearl (talk) 16:41, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In addition to my previous comment, there are articles on songs such as Barry Manilow's Could It Be Magic and the song It Only Takes a Minute, both covered by Take That, which focus more on the original version of the song, any cover versions being described in seperate sections in the article. I suggest something similar for this article - it would look a lot more organised. ElphaPearl (talk) 16:45, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The title should not be changed. This has nothing to do with the Take That singles, which are clearly covers (and unheard of in those songs' primary market of the U.S.), and it has nothing to do with boybands or even with this one, Boyzone. Since the time the first two comments here were posted, I have rewritten the article to feature an extensive early history of "No Matter What". Additional relevant and notable history should be added.
But I'd like to point out that the Boyzone version is not a cover version. Regardless of the fact that the song was first publicly performed in the brief U.S. engagement, it is the Boyzone recording which was the debut recording of the song. As such, it is subsequent versions, even those featuring the early stage casts, which are technically the covers. Many artists debut songs they have not written, and they are almost always considered considered the debut artist's song, not the songwriter's. The first line of Wiki's article Cover version is "In popular music, a cover version, or simply cover, is a new rendition (performance or recording) of a previously recorded, commercially released song." Furthermore, the Boyzone recording was produced by both of the song's writers, Lloyd Weber and Steinman, it's not like some wannabes jumped the gun and stole the thunder by sneaking their version out first. It is a unique approach to introducing your stage musical, but once you've taken that approach, we can't come along and say the Boyzone version isn't the original, or an article about the song should primarily feature a different version.
Finally, I would point out that the (Boyzone song) part is added to this song not because people are trying to promote the band or something but because there are two other articles about songs titled "No Matter What". Consider Holiday (Madonna song). Madonna did not write this song, but there are other songs with that title so the appendage is required. Indeed, "No Matter What" notably exists elsewhere, but not so notably that there has been any other popular version or that it would deserve an article unto itself. "No Matter What" is the only song in the musical with its own article, and this is because of the hit debut Boyzone recording, not because of any later cast recordings or any other notability.

Orphaned references in No Matter What (Boyzone song)

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of No Matter What (Boyzone song)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Billboard":

  • From Love Me for a Reason: Billboard allmusic.com (Retrieved August 25, 2008)
  • From Aaliyah: "Chart Beat Bonus". Billboard. Nielsen Business Media. August 31, 2001. Archived from the original on 2 August 2009. Retrieved July 23, 2009. {{cite web}}: Unknown parameter |deadurl= ignored (|url-status= suggested) (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 18:27, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
