Fair use rationale for Image:Worship Him.jpg[edit]

Image:Worship Him.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.

Peer review[edit]

"Worship Him is considered a milestone" this seems a little too much for such an underground album. considered by who?
what's the relation between Claude Lander with the fact that Worship Him was the recording/release debut of Osmose prods.?
that quote in the "Background and recording" section could be turned into prose.
"to Bulgaria's Tantra Mega Rock" is this zine a relevant publication to the point of being mentioned? the interview itself is pretty weak. Vorph says there he and his band mates used to "put the names of these bands [which influenced Samael] in the booklet". maybe the first press vinyl sleeve/CD booklet is even a better source - at least you will describe an peculiar aspect of the album and bring something relevant to the table by using the own album as a source. I see no problem in doing that.
- Changed the reference to Blabbermouth [1]. Fine by you? Musicaindustrial (talk) 00:59, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
the long quote on "Musical style and influences" could also be turned into prose.
that "fucking great" thing seems pretty swallow - I believe you can improve that one as well.
"Another notable member" why notable? consider most people don't have a clue about who Fenriz is.
try out something like: Another key figure in the early Norwegian black metal scene, Fenriz of Darkthrone fame, deemed Worship Him as a classic [what? black metal?] album. The musician included the song "Into the Pentagram" as part of his own The Best of Old-School Black Metal compilation. Fenriz stated [where? in the CD booklet?] the said song is "Samael's answer to Hellhammer's 'Triumph of Death'" etc.
- Done. Musicaindustrial (talk) 00:30, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
but, why Fenriz included that Samael song in the comp.?
"Death Metal Underground, the internet's longest-running metal site, called Worship Him a "classic of black metal" in their review of the album." not really relevant - would be better use the style description given by that source, rather pretend they are that "authoritative" as a publication.
- Removed. Musicaindustrial (talk) 00:18, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Despite being a landmark release in the genre, the iconic status Worship Him isn't entirely recognized by parts of the heavy metal press." iconic? I doubt and it seems so does the overall metal press.
Metal Forge? anyway, that sentence didn't seems really connected to what came before.
- Removed. Musicaindustrial (talk) 00:33, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Decibel magazine inducted Worship Him to their "Hall of Fame" on their #118 issue." yeah, and you need that source.
here you have some info about early Samael http://sendbackmystamps.org/category/all-bands/bands/samael-swtz/
