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

Image:Boyslight.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.

dorsetted[edit]

The article currently states:

The title track contains the invented word "dorsetted", invented purely to rhyme with "corsetted".

I have a problem with the word "purely" in this sentence, I agree that Reyne invented the word and used it to rhyme with corsetted...

However, he is also indicating the girls of Dorset Gardens Hotel (a pub in Croydon an eastern suburb of Melbourne) while the protagonist was attempting to get one of them out of her corsets...

A wider reading of the lyrics shows the entire couplet as:

The Garden it is Dorsetted
That lady she's so corsetted (capitalisations are mine)

The hotel still exists see Visit Victoria tourism article on Dorset Gardens Hotel Motel.

An on-line reference I've found to support my contention that this is Reyne's reason for using "dorsetted" is at ABC Love is in the air transcript of interview with James Reyne.

I will consequently change the article to reflect this.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:05, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:The Boys Light Up/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Start class (almost B-class) with infobox, some discussion of album tracks, songwriters noted, musicians & others credited. Could have more discussion of style of music of various songs and impact on Australian music scene. Importance to mid as album was #4 on National charts. I have recently contributed to this article and so may be biased.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 02:02, 7 March 2008 (UTC) Only #4 not #1.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 08:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
