Hit?[edit]

According to the RPM archives, no song or album by Organized Rhyme ever appeared on its national charts. Not even the utterly inconsequential "Cancon to Watch" list.

There's obviously no question that "Check the OR" is the band's best-known song (even CBC Radio 3 still pulls it out once in a while), but since RPM was the only national record chart in Canada during the 1990s, a song that doesn't appear in their charts can't be easily described as a "hit". And it doesn't show up in a Billboard chart search, either. So can anybody show an actual chart source to verify that it was ever actually a hit? Bearcat 23:06, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

it won a Juno, doesn't that count for something? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.180.218.83 (talk) 03:59, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, but "counting for something towards notability" is not the same thing as "charting hit". Bearcat (talk) 19:44, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Organizedrhymecover.jpg[edit]

Image:Organizedrhymecover.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.

Article clean-up[edit]

I've gone ahead cleaned-up this article. It was originally tagged for having too many primary sources. I have kept any information that I could find via web searches that were supported by reliable sources. The only piece of info in the article for which I could not find a reliable source was the bit about the 2000 a remix of "Check the O.R.", but I did find evidence of it's existence via a web search, so I left that information with a "citation needed" tag. --Marchije•^speak/_peek 18:33, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
