Fair use rationale for Image:Jorda.jpg

Image:Jorda.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 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.

State of the article

After a quick first perusal, I think there's a fair amount of work to be done here. The overall style is pretty casual, there are several run-on paragraphs, sentences that have no connection with their surroundings, etc. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the group to do much but surely there are folks who can help clean this up! --Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 16:04, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Under Recognition, I changed the dates (one year earlier each) for the Grammy Awards given the Orff (1992) and the Brahms (1995). The Orff won the 35th Annual Grammy Awards for 1992. See http://www.shopsfsymphony.org/shop/product.php?productid=769 . The Brahms won for 1995. See Vance George's page (he was the chorus director) at http://vancegeorge.com/documents/Vance_George_Biography_Long.pdf and http://grammy.com search-page - Atraveler (talk) 11:50, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Under History, I changed the San Francisco Symphony Chorus's date (of establishment) from 1973 to 1972 (to match the correct SF Chorus entry). - Atraveler (talk) 11:50, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong

In this part says Hertz helped to refine the orchestra and convinced the Victor Talking Machine Company to record it in Oakland in early 1925. Hertz also led the orchestra on a number of radio broadcasts. But what Oakland?, it can refers to places in Canada, places in the United States, and in other uses (Oakland). The redactor can repair this... Jorghex (talk) 02:11, 25 June 2008 (UTC) (Sorry for my bad Englis is beacause I'm Mexican)[reply]

Beginning in 1924, Oakland, California was host to a major Victor Talking Machine Company record pressing plant with an attached recording studio. Hertz's recording sessions were the last acoustical orchestral sessions where the sound was picked up by the bell of a large horn and that energy transferred to an inscribing needle. After Hertz, superior electrical recording methods (with microphones and a cutting lathe) were employed. Binksternet (talk) 02:55, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox?

The infobox for the orchestra is, in my view, just about completely useless. "Associated acts"? What on earth would they be for an orchestra? "Associated organizations," maybe. And are the only members of the orchestra those listed here? Of course not. That template was designed for pop performers; the consensus at the classical music project here in WP-land has been to remove these boxes. I will do so unless there is a huge outcry within the next day or two. --Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 23:29, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
