Fair use rationale for Image:Whitney Houston- The Star Spangled Banner.jpg

edit
 

Image:Whitney Houston- The Star Spangled Banner.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 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.

The Star Spangled Banner (Whitney Houston song)Whitney Houston's Super Bowl XXV performance – "The Star-Spangled Banner" is not a Whitney Houston song, and the current title implies that she recorded her own song called "The Star Spangled Banner" that is not the US National Anthem. Much of the article discusses her famous rendition of the song at Super Bowl XXV, and I think this would be a more appropriate title.

I am open to similar suggestions for titles and am not restricting discussion solely to my proposed title. –Chase (talk / contribs) 23:01, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

"The Star Spangled Banner" "Whitney Houston" gets "About 1,300 results"
"The Star Spangled Banner" "Super Bowl XXV" gets "About 241 results"
"Whitney Houston" "Super Bowl XXV" gets "About 414 results"
Suggest swapping "song" for "recording", "performance" or similar. I guess that people probably bought the track because of the song and because of Houston not because of a connection to the Super Bowl Gregkaye 10:04, 24 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

improper tone of wording

"And about ten days later, she recorded a breathtaking game-day master at a California studio" and "Two weeks later, the single was a big hit on the Billboard charts" strike me as editorializing, or at least not proper tone for an encyclopedia, unless someone is being quoted directly). I don't want to edit it myself out of respect for the writer. NewkirkPlaza (talk) 15:07, 18 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
