Fair use rationale for Image:Venconmigo1.jpg
Image:Venconmigo1.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.
I believe I have fixed everything you have raised here in the review. The only thing I did not do is the source for the 180,000 number, as the source is listed there as #25 source #50 is for the units it has sold from a different source as it does not represent the shipment certification number listed by the RIAA.

following a woman's struggles after many failed relationships. – Was this specifically to women? In the body it just mentions failed relationships. Could it be that it applied to all sexes?

Infobox
Selena chronology and Selena studio album chronology – Please spell "Éxitos". In addition, do you know what the policy is for chronology in infoboxes? I'm asking because Mis Primero Exitos and Entre a Mi Mundo are not mentioned elsewhere in the article. Per
WP:INFOBOXCITE, info in the infobox has to be cited elsewhere in the body paragraphs. Would you check / be able to fix this?
Production and development
division with Jose Behar as president – José
the Los Dinos band continued to tour with her – I'm a native Spanish speaker, so I'm a bit biased with this. But shouldn't you consider removing "the" from Los Dinos. The sentence is fine without it.
Recording and composition
Ven Conmigo has been described as containing half cumbias and half rancheras. – I don't want this to be flagged with "According to whom?" How do you feel about removing "has been described as" and just state what it includes? You do it in the following sentence anyways.
Abraham Quintanilla, Jr.—the group's manager (A.B. Selena, and their sister Suzette's father) – Who is Suzette? You don't want readers to stop right here and look up who this person is. Why not simply stick to Selena's father, which readers will know is also A.B.'s father since they read he was her sibling just earlier.
Patoski though the song was – thought
thought [sounded] better" recalled Pérez – I would link Chris Pérez. No mention of this person before in the sections (he is in the lead, but since you introduced/linked everyone again in the sections, I rather you do that here too for consistency).
track that Suzette compared to a – if you decide to remove Suzette per the suggestion above, you can introduce this person now.
Promotion
A.B. discovered 17-year old Chris Pérez, – link Chris in the previous mentioned and then remove link here and keep his last name.
A.B persuaded Quintanilla Jr. – period after B.
She later shared another venue with Ramon Ayala, – Ramón
Author Joe Nick Patoski described Pérez' choreography – Correct me if I'm wrong. Should it be Pérez's?
Critical reception
and 17 Super Exitos contributed to the $5 billion – The word éxitos has an accent. Same goes for súper (in Spanish), though I don't think they added it officially for her album. Can't expect everyone to know accent rules I guess...
