Image:HeroSample.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. BetacommandBot ( talk) 18:16, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
I added the following information in relation to a cover of the song/x factor version. It is perfectly legitimate material, relevant to both the original song and the x factor cover and is fully cited/referenced. It should not be removed on the grounds of "propaganda" as attempted by some british users as it's as neutral/unbiased as the x factor's Help for "heroes" release and doing so would be unfair and potentially libelous to wikipedia as it would indicate bias/censorship.
On the 14th of December 2008, Irish political party éirígí released an alternative video to the X Factor's "Hero" release on their website. [1] In a statement on their website, the party claimed that "In response to the release of the X Factor’s ‘Hero’ in support of Britain’s occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq éirígí has compiled an alternative video highlighting the true nature of modern day imperialism". [2] The video was removed from various video hosting sites in the days following its release. [3]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.45.81.139 ( talk) 10:54, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

As a result of discussion above, and out of common sense, I have copied over the contents of the Hero cover bit to Hero (X Factor release). As this page is protected, it would be a breach of policy to remove it from this article without a consensus. Can I go ahead and remove it all from this article and create a stub paragraph?

Hello folks. "The song's chorus has a basic chord progression of Gsus2–G–G/F♯–Em7–G/D–C-G/B–Am" Just wanna comment on this. Is this basic chord progression? -- Efe ( talk) 14:22, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

After thoroughly reviewing this article, I have decided to put this article on-hold to allow time for changes. Most of the article is fine and ready for good article status. However, there are some minor issues that I addressed below keeping it away from good article status that involve the prose of the article. I will give a week for these mistakes to be fixed and/or defend any items below that you believe do not affect good article status. - Rp0211 (talk2me) 06:53, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi there :D Just enquiring into changing 'per say [sic]' to 'per se' :) I'm all very new to this :) However, correct me if I'm wrong, aren't 'per se' and 'per say', phonetically speaking, identical? :) How is the conclusion being drawn that she said 'per say' when the message wasn't encoded on a written medium and I as such feel we can't assume that she confused 'say' for 'se'? :) Again I've only recently started doing edits of this nature and so I look forward to a reply as I clearly as of yet to do not understand how such matters are discerned and I'm sure there's reasoning behind this edit :) Thanks in advance :) Can't Let Go ( talk) 01:50, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
