Wrong label information

The article said the first release of 'Is Vic there?' was in March 1981 on Demon (Demon D 1003)reaching #22 in the charts then the single was re-released on RCA. The Guinness Book of Singles (given in this article as a source) clearly shows the March 1981 release was on RCA (RCA D 1003). The first release was on Demon on December 29th 1980 (source: Punk Diary by George Gimarc, ISBN 0-87930-848-6). I have corrected this.Vauxhall1964 (talk) 14:53, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Department S Band Picture.jpg

Image:Department S Band Picture.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 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.

Image copyright problem with Image:Department S - Smash Hits May 1981 magazine cover.jpg

The image Image:Department S - Smash Hits May 1981 magazine cover.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
That this article is linked to from the image description page.

Mr Nutley's Live? Current vocalist?

Never has an album sounded less like a live album than Mr Nutley's. Also, the current line-up surely has a vocalist.WebHorizon (talk) 18:58, 11 August 2016 (UTC)KD Tries Again[reply]
