Copies of this album sold

[edit]

I don't think this album has sold half a million copies. Are there any reliable sources on this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.242.4.198 (talk) 22:50, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Duskandh2.jpg

[edit]

Image:Duskandh2.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

If someone could get some sources in here that would be great. Chipthief00 (talk) 01:18, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Variant covers

[edit]

Both of these have the correct fair use rationales, and both are mentioned in the actual article, meaning that they're not simply included for decoration. They do not, as far as I can see, violate Wikipedia's non-free content criteria, and their omission is detrimental to the page, since it means significant visual information is missing. They WERE in violation of the thumbnail rule however, so have now been added to the box. If you disagree with this, Cannibaloki, please explain.

Very simple, acording with Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria: Minimal usage. Multiple items of non-free content are not used if one item can convey equivalent significant information. I do not need all the covers of several different versions which this album was released.--Cannibaloki 18:06, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I actually can read. I just don't agree with your interpretation of the rules. Mentioning that there was a special edition that came in a coffin, and then illustrating that, doesn't seem to me to contravene the guidelines. The normal cover doesn't convey equivalent information, since you can't infer from it what the coffin packaging looked like. But whatever, if you care that strongly, do what you like. I'm not going to get in an edit war about it. Just out of interest, do you actually contribute to articles or just police them randomly? I find that really fascinating. I'm sure there's a PhD in the psychology of Wikipedians. :-) User: Cardinal Wurzel, 21/5/09, 19:39 GMT.

You're right, [This does not mean that you are 100% right.] I will not bother you more with that image stuff.--Cannibaloki 06:18, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dusk... and Her EmbraceDusk and Her Embrace – I'm opening this on behalf of FamblyCat94, who had requested a page move to Dusk and Her Embrace, which currently serves as a redirect, with the justification "Both MusicBrainz and Discogs treat this album as Dusk and Her Embrace, and Dusk... and Her Embrace is not currently supported by any references". For some reason Wikipedia isn't allowing me to post this with my original post, so I'll make a quick post and then add my response afterwards.

  • Here's my original post:
I declined this since the CoF website seems to refer to the album with ellipses, at least with the most recent release, Original Sin, and there's evidence of the album being sold under Dusk... per this Amazon listing. Metal Injection also refers to the 1996 album using ellipses.
The biggest argument in favor of the move is that Dusk and Her Embrace seems to be the way that the album is commonly titled by most outlets. (WP:COMMONNAME) That the cover itself generally lacks the title (its first release had no title on the cover from what I can see here) and there are so many different versions of it out there (some with the ellipses, some without, some styling the title as Dusk & Her Embrace, etc).
Why I'm opening this is because I'd like to have some sort of consensus prior to this move, just in case it gets questioned in the future with some of the same stuff that I pulled up. That way it'd be safe from any other potential moves, especially since the cover art for the 2016 version seems to include the ellipses. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:10, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't have any particular opinion on this either way, it's just that there is evidence of this being the title and perhaps the original title style and I'd like to have some sort of consensus just to prevent any potential future moves from the title sans ellipses.
