"Solar" authorship controversy

[edit]

I removed the following redundant (and citation-lacking) statement from the article text.

"The track entitled Solar is actually not a Davis original - it is in fact by Chuck Wayne who composed the piece under the title of Sonny after Sonny Berman, the lead trumpeter of Woody Herman's band with whom Wayne was working at the time. Davis visited the band and apparently liked the tune that Berman played for him, hence later recording it on this album."

The authorship controversy is already covered in a note in this article and in the Solar (composition) article (in more depth and with proper citations) which would seem to be a more appropriate place for it. Pugetbill (talk) 20:27, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Miles Davis Walkin.png

[edit]

Image:Miles Davis Walkin.png 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.
