Fair use rationale for Image:Bauhaus - In the Flat Fields.jpg

Image:Bauhaus - In the Flat Fields.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 Wikipedia articles 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 02:46, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"The band produced it themselves, and while the album is a definitive document of gothic rock as a style, it does not strictly adhere to it on the recording." What the fuck is that nonsense?

Removal of CD tracklisting

Notes in the history claim that only the original tracklisting is relevant. I respectfully disagree. On every other album page, when an album is reissued with extra tracks--no less than 8 extra tracks in this case--it is usually listed. In fact, the 17-track version is the one most people are familiar with, unless they only have the original vinyl. Thoughts, people? Leamanc (talk) 03:56, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Omnibus Edition tracklisting is relevant and the main CD release is not? Sometimes Wikipedia is so arbitrary. Leamanc (talk) 02:11, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The re-issue tracks should be included in this article, in the same format of Mask and the other albums. Btp1021 (talk) 14:18, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's been a while since I visited this page, but I am very happy to see that the original tracklisting, 1988 issue, and Omnibus edition are all covered now. Cheers! --Leamanc (talk) 16:16, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

January 2021

Ninmacer20, I'm getting tired of checking the sources you add on Bauhaus related articles. You included that Steve Albini considered In the Flat Field a masterpiece, fine but then put you in the position of the reader, you give a 4 hour interview link on youtube as a source !, do you expect people are going to listen to such a long interview to hear the part about Bauhaus ? No. So do add the quote and the exact timing when there is that part about in the flat field in that video interview. Otherwise, I'll remove it, wiki is an encyclopedia, it is not a blog for Bauhaus fans. Woovee (talk) 03:38, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok sure, I can include a time stamp for that interview. No problem. Ninmacer20 (talk) 03:43, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
