Fair use rationale for Image:The Unnatural Conception - Paramaecium.ogg

Image:The Unnatural Conception - Paramaecium.ogg 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:Horde - Invert the Inverted Cross.ogg

The image Image:Horde - Invert the Inverted Cross.ogg 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.

The following images also have this problem:

Merge, delete or re-write?

What should be done with this article? It was originally meant to be a sub-article Christian metal, to cut the length below 40,000 kbits. That did not help to get a FA status, as the review failed. Most of this article is original research and name-dropping, all the information can be found in the individual bands articles, and most of this page was merged back to the Christian metal article under the section Christian bands in metal subgenres. It doesn't make sense to have a separate article with same content. This page does not bring more value to the subject, or does it? Many of the sources are unreliable. Is this even useful, as the List of Christian metal bands serves better those who are looking for new bands? I once tagged this page for deletion, but the tag was removed until there's consensus on the matter.--Azure Shrieker (talk) 18:36, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the article should remain for now, though if enough coverage of each individual style, i. e. Christian death metal, thrash, doom, etc., I think the article could be deleted.--3family6 (talk) 01:36, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
