Talk:Department S (band)

Wrong label information
The article said the first release of 'Is Vic there?' was in March 1981 on Demon (Demon D 1003)reaching #22 in the charts then the single was re-released on RCA. The Guinness Book of Singles (given in this article as a source) clearly shows the March 1981 release was on RCA (RCA D 1003). The first release was on Demon on December 29th 1980 (source: Punk Diary by George Gimarc, ISBN 0-87930-848-6). I have corrected this.Vauxhall1964 (talk) 14:53, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Department S Band Picture.jpg
Image:Department S Band Picture.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 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.

Mr Nutley's Live? Current vocalist?
Never has an album sounded less like a live album than Mr Nutley's. Also, the current line-up surely has a vocalist.WebHorizon (talk) 18:58, 11 August 2016 (UTC)KD Tries Again

Bad picture
What is it with Wikipedia using pictures of bands thirty years after their heyday? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.249.184.153 (talk) 23:38, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
