Image:Republicofloose.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 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. BetacommandBot 07:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Have done up the discography section but I can't find info on how well their third album charted, therefore have left it blank. Would appreciate if anyone could help with this.

Similarly, band is influenced by numerous American music genres of the twentieth century, and has supported bands such as Alabama 3, The Thrills and U2. Frontman Mick Pyro defends claims that the band's sound is overtly American by saying "authenticity is a construct, and a bogus construct at that. It was invented by a bunch of wack-jobs in the nineteenth century out of their minds on opium and nature [...] fuck irony and parody, we're going to get to the heart of the music we love".

This article has good narrative and structure. Its weak point is the use of quotes without sufficient context. For example the second paragraph of "Influences and style" provides a list of other people endorsing the band without any explanation (is this style or influences?). "Comeback Girl" is "one of the greatest songs ever recorded"....ok...care to provide context?...or it just is? This paragraph could be reduced to two or three sentences by removing such undescriptive promotional quotes as "a real privilege my friends, a massive privilege".
A useful link. So its Republic Of Loose who take the top honours with the previously unheard ‘Comeback Girl’. -- can dle • wicke 09:21, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
