Discography
The template for ProjectAlbums allows for a lot of flexibility. Lots of articles include the album number and bolding of the current album, including Radiohead and Oasis. The rules are not static and are contantly changing to improve the article quality at Wikipedia. --Madchester 15:31, 2005 Jun 21 (UTC)


 * Thought the layout had to be the same for every album. Okay :) --Gika 15:35, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Personally, I feel the ProjectAlbums template is the bare minimum on the layout of any album article. You can expand from there, where you feel it can improve an article. --Madchester 18:27, 2005 Jun 21 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Sufjan1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sufjan1.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Carnildo or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you.

Non-free use disputed for Image:RHP-Bridge.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:RHP-Bridge.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. 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.

Image:E Eels.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:E Eels.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. —Bkell (talk) 08:05, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Sufjan Template
Just to tell you I modified your original template to include singles and related articles. Thanks for the starter! And don't get wound up about the image policy. Maybe become an amateur photographer, that'll show them who's GNU! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 01:17, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
