Fair use rationale for Image:Markmedlock.jpg[edit]

Image:Markmedlock.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 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 04:57, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

German Single Cerification, 1x Gold (300,000)?[edit]

The article states at the bottom of the page (certification) that Mark Medlock's single Now or Never has been certified 1xgold (300,000 units).

In Germany at the moment, the certification for single CDs is 150,000 units, and for albums 100,000 units. Platinum certification for single CDs is 300,000 units and for albums is 200,000.

Here is an official web site for that information.

Personal life[edit]

I just removed a couple of things from the article that don't make sense. Firstly, it said that Mark married his "former boyfriend", which suggests that they split up before they got married. It's unlikely they would marry completely out-of-the-blue, so I suspect it's actually supposed to mean that he was his boyfriend and then became his husband. Either way, the 'former' is just confusing, so I deleted it. I also changed the bit about him living in a 'living community'. This sounds very hippy-ish! I expect whoever wrote it meant it to mean 'Wohngemeinschaft', which is just a shared flat in English. I didn't find any articles to support that, though, so I opted for the more general 'lives in a flat'. Jammycaketin (talk) 17:14, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
